Default Why is the 8 bore illegal for waterfowl/migratory game?

I know there was a law passed in 1918 but can my fellow 8 bore shooters explain the rationale.
Was it considered an unfair advantage? [It aint no punt gun.]

Does the rationale still hold when we have 3.5 inch magnum 10 and 12 gauge guns?

Who wants to be a plaintiff?
