I’m thinking that these things will just lead to confusion for someone starting out.

I can say that for me (a beginner just about two years in), I cannot tell the difference between a 1 3/4 and 1 11/16ths nut. In fact, while I do notice a difference when switching from my 1 3/4 steel string to my 2 inch classical, after about 10 minutes the difference seems to fade away.
I think I'm just not consistent enough to identify a 1/16ths difference.
