Yes, it has a higher number and that's exactly what "not biarch safe" means. A
biarch safe package manager doesn't rely on release numbers only. And
generally, a package manager that is recommended as a replacement for an
existing one should behave like the preconfigured one, otherwise it's not a
replacement.
zypp prefers the architecture over the release number in already installed
systems and the version-release combo only during system upgrades. All
replacements should match this behaviour. There is no need to "blame" anything
because it just works with the preconfigured package manager.

First, one screwed installation is more than enough and second, everyone who
prefers a screwed installation over having what is defined as a "big head" here
can reproduce it on his very own system. I'm very comfortable with the size of
my head.

Thanks for this highly technical on-topic wording. Just as a reminder, this is
not about "being right", it's about preventing people from running into
problems and concluding that "package management doesn't work on SL 10.1". Have
a nice weekend.
