I was asking so that it gets to people that 5.1 and 5.2 are not major release anymore instead 5.x and 6.x
will be major release in future. So there will never be 5.2 and 5.3 simultaneously existing but 5.2 and 6.0 might. So it just reflects the upstream release model change. We can always change the minor as well there is no other technical advantage of using 5.%
