Why not list better details online?

I would have liked to have known it is linen fabric before ordering and also that it contains a chemical known to cause cancer by the State of California. It appears more plush in the photo than it actually is.

    This headboard is upholstered with 65% polyester, 8% linen, and 27% viscose blend fabric. Please refer to California's Proposition 65 law to better understand the meaning of the label. All California based manufacturers must put this warning label on the furniture.

    The fabric causes cancer? Please explain. I went to the Proposition 65 website but I don't know what chemical I am looking for. Need more details to make an informed decision. Do all of the headboards have the same chemicals or is it just this one?

    It's a law called California's Proposition 65 that
    makes all furniture manufacturers based in California to put this warning label
    on the furniture. This warning label can be found on many kinds of products,
    such as electrical wires, jewelry, padlocks, dishes, and flashlights to name
    just a few. It doesn't mean that the furniture actually toxic; it just says
    that a chemical formaldehyde is used in manufacturing the furniture and may
    cause cancer (e.g., if swallowed). Our furniture compliant with California
    93120 for formaldehyde phase 2. 93120 is about how much formaldehyde is off
    gassed from a product at 73 degrees. California has very strict rules when it
    comes to manufacturing home use products and our furniture compliant with all
    of them.
