Wait a few years, they will be calling them 2x4s.

I noticed that Home Depot is stocking 2x3 studs these days. I have used
them for a small garden shed and they are much easier/lighter to handle
and
still give the strength for most places. I'm just wondering why these
haven't been produced longer? The price is about 25-35% less than 2x4's.
