A higher number makes sense and is useful.

USB 3.2 Gen 2x1 isn't useful.

Aren't these internal names?

Also, you can call a shitty device USB 3. You can call a super juiced up device USB 3 as well. The consumer had to go dig in the manual to find out what generation and speed it actually is.

See the point?

A lot of USB flash drives advertise themselves as USB 3 with wildly varying speeds
