Oh, so maybe let's try this way. Quotes from Wiki:
16:9 is an aspect ratio with a width of 16 units and height of 9. Since 2009, it has become the most common aspect ratio for sold televisions and computer monitors and is also the international standard format of HDTV, Full HD, non-HD digital television and analog widescreen television.
And here is about 16:10:
16:10, also known as 8:5, is an aspect ratio mostly used for computer displays and tablet computers. The width of the display is 1.6 times its height. This ratio is close to the golden ratio "\varphi" which is approximately 1.618.
LCD computer displays using the 16:10 ratio started to appear in the mass market from 2003. By 2008 16:10 had become the most common aspect ratio for LCD monitors and laptop displays.
And now MOST IMPORTANT:
Since 2010, however, 16:9 has become the mainstream standard, driven by the 1080p standard for high definition television.
16:9 is a TV standard, dude. Deal with it
