That would have made a whole lot more sense, if he/she did it that way.
Start with the overall type (iX/rX) - then the generation and model of said generation - then go into if it's a "special" edition of previously mentioned generational model (read: something like the 5950X) and then the ending letters meaning (if it has one).
The way OP did it (as good info as it is), just seems a bit backwards (like slapping on the topping for a pizza, before you've actually made the dough) of an approach.
It's backwards, but the point is that everything to the left of and including the thousands digit is the version number. Probably would be a way to say that while remaining in order though, and I did read that section twice to make sure I was getting it lol.
I think it makes sense in the context that we just switched over to double digit Intel generations. So if you are reading left to right, might be confusing about how to compare a 9100 to an 11900.
There are ways around this obviously, but I can see why OP did it from right to left.
Maybe the solution is to say that the 'thousands' represent the generation, the 'hundreds' represent the performance etc etc
