Something does care. Yes, of course. But that something doesn't care about numbers, but only about changer binary equal maintainer or any uploader, or maintainer equal the Debian QA group. If so, it's close, otherwise it's fix. > There is a good reason to get the version right. Of course - that makes life easier for anyone who has to deal with that package later on.
