There actually is a standard that all tire makers are supposed to follow for each size. It's a window or frame within which the tire dimensions must fall when mounted on the "measuring width" wheel for the specified tire size. The
Tire and Rim Association is responsible for the requirements.
Two tires that fall on each side of the extremes of section width (for example) might cause a rub issue with one where the other one clears...always been the case...
