Hi Eli,

does the Android SDK version match the Android OS version?
does the macOS SDK version match the macOS version?
does the Windows SDK version match the Windows OS version?
does the Qt Creator version match the Qt version?
...

The universal answer is No, simply because the SDK and the platform are two different products 
with their own life cycles.

Each Sailfish SDK version supports multiple Sailfish OS versions. Currently this means the latest 
OS version published to all users + some older OS versions. Soon, we will start releasing also 
build targets for the latest OS version published to EA users.

You can be sure the links published on https://sailfishos.org/wiki/
Application_SDK#Latest_SDK_Release always point to the latest SDK release, so unless you dig 
them out yourself, you cannot download older installers by mistake.

Enjoy using the latest greatest SDK and forget about version numbers, they become important 
only when dealing with issues :)

BR,
Martin
