I would argue circular mils (also used in measuring wire) is even worse than AWG. At least "gauge" measures have a reasonable physical basis - for wire, it's the number of times a given ingot of copper was drawn through a die to make it longer and thinner. That's why the number goes up as the size goes down.

Split over 2 pairs, it's 2.5A per conductor. Assuming 75C-rated insulation, you need ~25 AWG - call it 24 gauge for a little safety margin. That's a conductor with cross-sectional area of 0.2mm^2, diameter a touch over half a millimeter.

It's not a human hair - but it does intuitively feel like too much.

We'll probably get used to it. And only see houses go up in flames once in a while because some cheap non-UL-rated cable got purchased from a shady dealer...

(I know Matt doesn't need to be told any of this, it's just for the thread...)
