As far as I can see, and not being that familiar with the all the version numbers so far - the release candidate ID is not an every-increasing number regardless of version number but signifies the release candidate id of that particular version, so taking two random version numbers (nothing to do with real Devialet firmware releases) - v2.1 RC4 and v2.2 RC3 would be perfectly valid.
But yes, their versioning does seem a bit weird with, for example, a non-beta generally-available release called "expert-pro-2.1_rc4". I have felt some concern in the past about how they version software releases because it doesn't always seem to make sense, and can expose to the public how their versioning system, and hence source code control, may be a bit haphazard. It might well not be, but just looks that way!
