TIL that they're alphabetical. I always hated them before just now but I guess that's slightly more tolerable. Really though, please just stick to numbers if you ever have to name a product lineup. It's immediately obvious to anyone that Firefox 77 came after Firefox 76.

Is Gutsy Gibbon newer or older than Babbling Baboon? At least the $YEAR.$MONTH release numbers make sense, no questions about the relationship 18.04 and 21.10 have.
