Something may have been lost in translation re: version numbers and Firefox. This post links to a post on Slashdot, which links to an article on ExtremeTech, which links to a bug that has since been marked “INVALID”.
(It may have been true that they were considering removing user-facing version numbers, but from what I can tell, that no longer seems to be the case.)
