There is a Mac joke associated with version 20. This is why they accelerated the version numbers.
"I was wondering if you'd like to try Magic Mushrooms"
"Oooh I dont know. Sounds a bit scary"
"It's not scary. You just lose a sense of who you are and all that sh!t"

Way back when they first started they joked that a Mac version would be available at version 20.

It's getting less and less common with traditional version numbers like 1.0, 1.2, 2.0 etc. In fact, it's not really something new. You might remember Microsoft released a product called "Windows 95", which was actually Windows version 4.00.0950. Windows 7 was actually version 6.1 and Windows 8 was 6.2.
Google Chrome is at version 72.0 by now, while my GeForce drivers are version 416.34.
Doesn't really matter IMO, as long as they make it easy to distinguish the versions. Perhaps they should copy Android and name the versions after desserts, or maybe drinks... Upgrade to the new Logic Cognac, introducing 45 new features. Special upgrade price for owners of Whiskey and Koskenkorva.

You're kidding right?
You should get a load of the version numbers we use for human creatures.
Tom, Bob, Martha, Gwendolin? WTF is this crap?

Long tradition. Cubase got up to 5 or 5.1, then had SX, then SX2 ,SX3, and then just 5. So there have been two fives, about 8 years apart. FL went from 12 to 20.
I assume that either they can't count or they forget what number they're up to.

... or the marketing number is meaningless and entirely distinct from any internal version number while you've all been very, very confused and mistakenly attributed some sort of meaning or validity to it.

Use Bitwig. They're honest and straighforward about their version number

In the other direction - why does Pre-Sonus still call Studio One Studio One? I think they should increment it with each major release, so it would now be Studio Four or whatever.
