Far from being highly non-standard, 2560x1600 was the standard resolution of 30 inch monitors from 2004 to at least 2014.

1600p is also becoming more popular with some ultrawide monitors now.

But really the TLDR is that “non standard resolution” is a bit of a red herring. There are many sizes and shapes of monitor available and the concept of “standards” is an anachronism.

Even something as seemingly obvious like 1080p is a flawed standard because many TVs enlarge the input slightly to crop away junk on the edges, resulting in a physical 1080p screen showing an approximately 1060p image.
