Why are Minecraft versions 1.7.10, 1.8.9 or 1.16.4 etc etc?
Why wasn't there just a 2.0 after version 1.9?
Ask the Minecraft developers
Every developer can keep what he wants and is not subject to any statutes
This is a clearly defined process, although not binding on the developers.

It is the first full version with corresponding changes. A completely new game version would have to be created for 2.0.
In my opinion, 2.0 just sounds aloof and I wouldn't find that appropriate
It's actually easy to explain. For the first digit to change, the way you play must have changed a lot. When the second digit changes, a few new functions have been added. The third digit usually only contains bug fixes.
