Wood, boards, lumber IE. have a natural arc, curve, warp ..... You choose! A.k.a. known in the Construction Industry, CROWN; It's the Crown of that particular piece that may work for You or ...
..... So wheather it's a 1x, 2x, 3x? ..... all the way to large ceiling beams etc.. IOW always Fasten the Bent-Side up, the To the Sky!
    Understand, All proper usage of this natural feature in each piece it typically allows the finishes on every constructed plain to stay flat or straight for most of Our existences.
        Keep it Up!!! Lol, the theory is it'll wind up someday (maybe) sag downward to a straightened piece, rather than sagging even lower too cause a bump in the group it's planing with.
 (2 examples here below)

Orno the FOHC it Remains straight for a mighty long time. FOHC is the industries acronym of Free of Heart Center.
