"Version" is definitely used commonly to describe two different ... versions of the same thing, without implying that one is better than the other or supercedes it. There are two versions of the PS5, one with and one without a disk drive. There are many different versions of Windows, like Home or Enterprise. You can get hardcover or paperback versions of many books. Etc. Etc.
In normal English, when not using a number, sure! But in software, with numbers versions it almost universally means chronological releases of something.

Great examples! Those are both called "editions", not versions. Thanks for proving my point 😄
