Sure, 3DS names are dumb, but this is definitely not the case here. Using version numbers instead of different names for different things causes insane confusion and having to over-explain what it is.
See: DLSS
DLSS 2 is just DLSS 1 but better. DLSS 3 is frame generation that isn't compatible with most hardware. DLSS 3.5 is similar to DLSS 2 but includes enhanced raytracing denoising.
It's a nightmare. Making a version 2, 3, 4 etc of something also makes it sound like there's no reason to use the old version, whereas a lot of people are still using the regular stable diffusion over stable diffusion XL.
Imagine if the discussion was "Hey don't use Stable Diffusion 3 since you need a lot of VRAM, you should be using Stable Diffusion 1.5 or Stable Diffusion 2.1, but also it's worth getting a new GPU for Stable Diffusion 4 cuz it's very fast but has lower quality than version 3"
