There have been 8 PHBs and DMGs so far by ISBN, hence 8 editions (the Monstrous Compendium and Monatrous Manual make this somewhat more mbiguous, bit only somewhat).I already linked where WotC talked about how they avenging to talk about the rules as anything other than D&D when they come out, and...nobody will be confused in practice. The only D&D books on store shelves after 10 years of 5E will remain compatible with the new books, so nothing for anyone to he confused by, other than "hey, new books."</blockquote>
