Is there a reason why TLS 4.0 was not proposed?

I would indeed vote for TLS 4.0 (I believe minor versions are useful to 
keep; bumping the major version should occur only when there are 
disruptive changes).
TLS 4.0 gives people a stronger signal that it is a "must-have" 
(compared to 1.3), and prevent people from being confused by SSL 2 and 3.


P.-S.:  I would also suggest to use the TLS 1.3 name for "TLS 1.2 LTS".
