May I introduce you to Usb 3.x renaming?

3.0, 3.1Gen1, 3.2Gen1, 3.2Gen1x1 are the 5Gbps version.

3.1Gen2, 3.2Gen2, 3.2Gen1x2, 3.2Gen2x1 are the 10Gbps version.

Are those USB naming schemes, or edgy usernames from 2000s like xXx_31Gen3x1HardCore_xXx?

The reasoning it was to not confuse with .net framework 4.x series, and since they went beyond 4.x, it's just .net now. I believe .net core moniker was to explicitly distinguish is from framework versions.

It didn't help the confusion at all, tch. Being a .net guy since 1.0, you just figure it out eventually
