I once asked RITLabs why they insisted on keeping the the_bat.exe
filename across different versions, and they said it was so that no
matter what review you read, and no matter how old it was, you would
always be pointed to the most current version of TB.
I agree that it is confusing, but at the same time, I can really see
where it helps RITLabs with new users.
