Maybe the major releases could have a 'code name'
say version 14.0.0 could be "Blaster Boombox" or whatever
and version 15.0.0 could be "Clever Cacophony"
all the 14.X.X would simply retain the 'code name' until version 15.
This might make it simpler for users to identify what base version they
are using.
use case:
user: I am using Blaster, and I keep getting this odd visual
artifact when I click the tripleOSC plugins volume.
dev: yeah, we fixed that in Clever... please upgrade
use case:
user: I am using Clever, but I seem to have an issue with my FX
mixer crashing
dev: Do you know around what month you downloaded it?
user: I think it was in August
dev: Ok, this problem was already found and fixed if you install
the current version 15.3.7 you wont have that issue, there are also some
new features you will probably like.
so the dev would already know what code base the user is using, and the
user wouldn't have to remember the 14.3.22 or 15.2.17 whatever
The users as Chrissy was saying might be able to build up excitement
over new releases.

IMHO this would make people overestimate the meaning of individual
releases (and also increases effort for each release a bit) because if
we're going to followthe "release early, release often" principle in
the future we will be through very quickly. Release names are fine for
distributions/operating systems with releases once a year. Just my 5
cents.
