When Greg acknowledges your patch, everyone who is concerned with the
patch should see it.  So he needs to pick up the right version of the
patch that has everyone in CC.  He can use the version number to choose
the most recent one.

The version numbers don't appear anywhere once the code is committed.  So
it's not a problem to move up to the next version for any reason.  On the
other hand, if you skip a version, it can be a problem, because someone
may wonder if they missed some useful information.
