Why is the user's home folder visible in the smb share when homes browseable = no?

$ cat /etc/samba/smb.conf

[global]

# This will prevent nmbd to search for NetBIOS names through DNS.
   dns proxy = no

#### Networking ####

# The specific set of interfaces / networks to bind to
# This can be either the interface name or an IP address/netmask;
# interface names are normally preferred
;   interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 eth0


;   bind interfaces only = yes



   server role = standalone server

   pam password change = yes

   map to guest = bad user

; add machine script  = /usr/sbin/useradd -g machines -c "%u machine account" -d /var/lib/samba -s /bin/false %u

; add group script = /usr/sbin/addgroup --force-badname %g

;   include = /home/samba/etc/smb.conf.%m

;   idmap uid = 10000-20000
;   idmap gid = 10000-20000
;   template shell = /bin/bash

;   usershare max shares = 100
