No it is not still true.
In 2.{1,2}.x you had    =>  is now

    2.1   => 2.2.0      =>  3.0
          => 2.2.1      =>  3.1
    2.1.5 => 2.2.2      =>  3.2
    2.1.6 => 2.2.5      =>  3.3
    2.1.7 => 2.2.6
             2.2.7
             2.2.8

Notice we don't do the skipping x.y.{3,4} bullshit anymore.
