code into a micro bump violates that idea.
True. Incrementing minor suggests production of a branch and that
there may be a later bug-fix release from that branch which would
increment micro. There are various implications suggested by the
numbering strategy. These implications could result in more
maintenance effort. They may also result in OS distribution
maintainers not picking up the update since the increment to minor
makes the release seem more major than it actually is.
