Photoshop Canvas size defaults to pixels ignoring user ruler settings

PS 27.7.0 Mac

In PS, canvas size always defaults to pixels even when user settings are set to inches. I’ve reported this in earlier versions and thought it was fixed, and at one point it was verified by Adobe staff and experts here as a valid bug. It looks like it was never fixed. 

This is super annoying if you’re a professional user that adjusts canvas size many times a day. I would love to see this fixed. It is a super pain all day long.
