It didn't.

FF is up to 5.6.7.8 or whatever.

SM increments their major updates by .1's
2.0, 2.1, 2.2., 2.3, 2.4 and so on.

That is just a different numbering system, the rate and size of updates
is very similar.

Version numbers in software are just like coordinate systems in physics:
But necessarily and irrelevant. They're necessary as a reference system
but it's completely irrelevant and arbitrary how you set them.

...somebody clue me in on what this is all about? I guess this time I'm on the side of the developers...the new release schedule is something I can completely understand for once...and it certainly doesn't bother me. The numbers are just a reference and don't mean much in and of themselves, as stated. I get it. What's the problem?

Just because releases come fast and furious doesn't mean that a user has to update on anyone's schedule but their own. They may need to pay more attention to the release notes and be more aware of what they're missing/getting, but in the end they are still in charge of administering their own machines...right?
