I recognise that many do not, but they do not cut treated timber on a daily basis, so the poisonous load is infinitesimally smaller. Also, poisoning oneself does not generally lead to large claims for damages.
Anyone who even occasionally handles treated fence posts, as I do every year, will know the effects of handling treated timber without wearing gloves etc. Even a little splinter in a finger can turn quite nasty.
Irrespective of the above, if you or member Avulon can get a store to cut treated timber for you, I will be happy for you . I will also give my respect for the successfully exercised powers of persuasion.
