Some people might scratch their head about why many releases are in a long line of boxes (eg, 4.0 - 4.2), while others are in a short offshoot. The "key" box could be made taller to explain it. ("Recent releases are on short 'release' branches which are limited mostly to security patches." Something like that.)
