It has been this way forever.
The US started using standardized dimensioned lumber in 1924.
In the mid 1950's, I remember my father's carpenters complaining that they had to buy new T-squares and folding rulers etc to account for the dimension size instead of the old full sized lumber.
Sixty years is a long time to wait to sue about being cheated. It will be laughed out of court.

After World War I, the increasing demand for construction
lumber led to the first national size standard in 1924. This was revised in 1926, 1928, 1939,
and 1953, while still another revision is proposed for adoption in 1964.
