Wow!  Learn something new everyday!

Neither ls --help nor man ls provide a much of a clue
as to what a version sort is.  Listed among items with
more obvious sorting semantics I simply ignored -v.
info ls provided the full story.  ls -v definitely
addresses my objection.

GNU ls: --sort=version (aka -v)
