When did 8 x 10 prints become complicated?

I'm very frustrated with the steps taken to make an 8x10, which requires me to trim and cut. This was not the case for the last hundred or so years. Canon has slots for 4 x 6 and 5 x 7 but 8 x 10 has to go thru ridiculous steps. I've been told that it's because computer screens are formatted for 8 1/2 x 11.

 

I still don't understand. If I go to a framing shop, there are lots of 8x10 frames. My last printer, an Epson had a simple slot for 8 x 10's but all new printers seem to go with 8 1/2 x 11 and from that trim or cut. I had trouble on my last prints because I was doing a full 8x10, but in a white border. Ever try trimming white on white in 8 1/2? Not easy.

 

This print also was trimmed without my ability to keep the print the size it was shot in.
