Often times it isn't as that can be abused by bad actors that attempt to insulate themselves from liability by foisting it off on others. I think in a lot of cases markers of intent may be useful here - if you specifically request a class or species of wood that is restricted in logging you'd likely be held liable - "Oh I had assumed this specific rare tropical wood would be ethically sourced"... while as if you'd just requested a hardwood and contractor happened to source an illegally sourced wood the liability would likely be lessened. In this particular case it's actually particle board so end customers were likely completely unaware it was illegally sourced.
