> it turns out .NET Standard already has 8 different versions?

I think the versions prior to v1.6 were retrospectively defined based on the common capabilities of pre-existing platforms; v1.6 was what .NET Core 1.0 supported and .NET Framework vNext will support (2.0 is what .NET Framework 4.6.1 supports and what .NET Core vNext -- and vNext of MS's other platforms -- will support, and beyond 2.0 there will be more synchronous development across different platforms.)
