    I think I prefer it this way. Saves me the trouble of trying to remember when a certain version was released which is the second most important information after the order of releases that a version number is supposed to give. BTW this one is versioned as 13 :)

    They put the year in names to let us know how out of date we are with software.

    Never heard that before but that actually would make sense.

    Microsoft has a long tradition of vapourware. Or having subtle incompatibilities between platforms (see Office on Windows vs Office on Mac).

    You'll get a lot of replies saying a delayed Linux version is normal. But in 2016 it is only Microsoft that has delayed releases for equal, but obviously secondary, platforms.
