16:18? Why isn't this stated as 8:9?

So… basically this is half of a 5K monitor (such as the Apple Studio Display or the old 27" iMac).

16:18? Why isn't this stated as 8:9?

I'm gonna go with marketing. It's easier to explain 16:9 vs 16:18 than it is 16:9 vs 8:9. LG even says it's two stacked 16:9 monitors so it's natural to say 16:18. Not to mention bigger numbers sound better to you average consumer too.
