A few of us have specifically had discussions with people about how "TLS 1.3 is really TLS 2.0"; just relabeling it that should be fine. We risk over-complicating things by doing a number jump a la Windows 10. I don't particularly want to have to answer the question "what happened to TLS 3?" for the next decade or so. To repeat what I said in a previous reply, I think TLS 2-2016 or something is an ok way to reference things (outside of the spec doc).
