    Confusion about the release isn't helping. 6e, 5.5e, 5.1e, no it's just 5e really, one dnd, dnd 2024... I'm sure I've missed some in there.

    Just pick a version, call it that and be consistant. I get they don't want to alienate all the new 5e players that bought stuff off the back of the popularity bump of 2020, but pathfinder managed this with the remaster
    release. Everyone knew it was a remaster, made sure the fans understood what was coming, the compatability etc, and I don't recall seeing any complaints.

    5e was D&D Next before it was released. It's common practice to call a creative product something else and change the name for release, which
    makes sense as it's in flux and may be incorrect before finalized.
