Hasn't it been this way the whole time? Why is your frustration increasing?

  I imagine as the number of versions increase, there is more tracking you have to do when someone doesn't explicitly mention the version number.

    That's definitely my issue: over the years, we have accumulated more and more and more of these names. When someone talks about iOS 4 or iOS 7 in some article I am reading, I know what they are talking about and the extent to which the version matters; but, when someone talks about macOS Gaviota, I have to think "wait, was that the one that just came out, or was that one of the ones I haven't had to think about in a decade? oh shit... maybe it's the one that got announced today and I just haven't heard the name yet?!". (That said, I will also note that frustration is not inherently constant even when something is truly static: sometimes you get used to something over time and it stops bothering you, while other times it slowly drives you mad.)

  Haven't you not been getting food this whole time? Why is your frustration increasing?

    Help me understand how being starved for food is analogous to having OS version names that don’t reflect the order of OS releases.

      The irritant becomes with as time goes on as long as its present. More and more meaningless names to memorize...
