Because we used the numbers for different things back then.  In the
earlier days, the revision number was used as a "timeline indicator"
where each branch would start at .0 and move to .9 (whether any
releases occurred or not) over the course of its one-year lifetime.

One of those "seemed like a good idea at the time" sorts of things.
