It’s funny that WiFi is alphabet soup as the other comment mentioned, they rebranded to a single, simple number…then chucked an E on the end.

I get how/why, but it’s just funny.

Usb could have been great, then they decided that with every minor version bump they needed to go back and fuck with the name of the previous version…

Like FFS just do 3(5gbps) 3.1(10gbps) 3.2(20gbps) etc or whatever the fucking difference even is between them all at this point.
