So, in a blog post titled "Introducing .NET Standard", it turns out .NET Standard already has 8 different versions?

Also, rereading the article, I notice "When we shipped .NET Core 1.0, we also introduced .NET Standard."

This text really could do with a good editor.

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.)

That's exactly what happened, yes.

That's actually a fair point. I probably should have used a different wording.
