Is that really a 'horrible' experience? Once you've googled 5.x and you know it's Lollipop, do you not memorize that? I mean how often do you check your phone for what version of the OS it's running?

It's certainly confusing to novices when the phone says one thing, and the community says something completely different.

It would be fine if Android bumped major version numbers. But if I have to think about versioning once a month then it's hard to remember whether it was 5.1 or 5.2 or 5.3.
