No, it doesn't. There are way too many variants of versioning schemes
out there in use by so many OSS projects that the distributors and
vendors need to be prepared to encounter any variant you can imagine.
What matters is quality (here I do agree with you). A versioning scheme
can help to establish certain rules of what to do and more importantly
what to *not* do on a given version pattern or branch. And with the
current rate of successful releases, apparently the current rules either
were not enforced well enough or otherwise were not good enough and thus
need to be changed. A new versioning scheme then could help to establish
new, hopefully better rules.
Just my 2ยข.
