OS X Version 11? Does that mean someone thought it was OS X Version 10?? I've got to think this was just a straight up mistake and not a real consideration. Especially since 10.3 was only 18 months after 10.0.
Also, the distance between first Mac OS X released (server) and 10.3 was 4.5 years, and there were many developer previews in the middle, too… OS X 10.x felt unstable and unfinished for years. I totally see them wanting to cut through that perception.
My brain is hurting from some recursive redundancy here. I saw the X in "OS X" standing for 10. You could say "Mac OS X El Capitan" or Mac OS v10.11. Maybe you could say Mac OS X v10.11 too? Seems redundant though. Probably party of why they switched to macOS.
Oh, I see what you mean. The final design said “Mac OS X Version 10.3,” so they reveled in that redundancy a bit.
