You are correct on the, dismissed as a sheet metal rod, but that is how it is used
in the 1/8" and smaller diameters in industrial production. Note: it has been replaced
more and more by MIG in the last 40 to 45 years in production uses along with E6012
but you will still see it used in this function on occasion. The larger diameters you
mention is mostly used for none critical uses and fill rod etc.
It is funny the way you mentioned it above..
