Plus it has more bug fixes than 10.8.3.0, both because the 10.10 branch was pulled from trunk at a later time and because 10.10.2.0 was released later and thus even more fixes were back-ported. It therefore also has more possible incompatibilities to older versions. 10.8.3.0 only has the most important fixes available at the time of release back-ported, and has very few incompatibilities compared to e.g. 10.8.2. There were some plans to make a 10.9.2 at one time but that fell by the wayside. It would have replaced the 10.8.3.0.

Once we publish 10.11.1, I expect that we'll remove 10.8.3.0 from that list.
