I suspect you're colored by your experience, despite your modesty about it. To you or I, "CUDA version" probably means something like 'v13' or w/e of the "CUDA toolkit", which you know means the user running your code needs an "nvidia driver" = "580" or higher.

I wouldn't have been able to tell you this a few months ago, and it was confusing! Machine that compiles vs machine that runs, CUDA toolkit which includes both vs nvidia driver which just includes one part of it etc... The article explicitly describes this.
