Question about software updates

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
My Model 3 received a software update a few weeks ago, so it is now running on 2020.32.3 and Teslascope and the software info page on the display screen indicate that my software is up-to-date. However, other Model 3s have gone from 2020.32.3 to 2020.32.5. And still others have gone to 2020.36. Can anyone explain why Model 3s seem to be updating differently?
 
According to Tesla, the cars are put in buckets that depends on things like location, AP version, what features the car has. They push updates out to bits of the fleet at a time (most likely) for regression testing.

Basically they use the Google Method of system updates instead of the Apple Method.
