As of March 2024, it seems there are different versions rolled out to different user sets (over time). Fine, that’s not quiet the issue or suggestion. The feature is to show a Version number - as many different community posts and experiences based on possibly users are with access to different interface experiences.
If ChatGPT settings could “manufacture” a live “Version code” in the settings, it would be used to report issues and/or discuss topics of operation in the community. Forum users would be reminded to show their Version code for the issue (eg. GrpC-12022024-W10GCWB or whatever makes sense for OpenAI).
Forum users would then be able to understand (see) that they’re using a totally different version to the person commenting or posting an issue, which could have considerations if they see they’re on the same general release - but not the same sub-group.

I just answered messages of others on similar issues I’m having (now) and then further searching shows this was happening for other Users 4 months earlier? (before I experienced, so we must be on different sub-releases).
