version_compare指示xy0高于xy？

Question

Why does

version_compare('3.8.0', '3.8', '>')

return true ?

In terms of versioning, one would expect both to be identical, but version_compare indicates that 3.8.0 is higher than 3.8. Is there any workaround for this weird behaviour?

From the top of my head it feels that it could be that 3.8.0 > 3.8 since you have to imagine a regular charting x,y graph...it's a 2 dimension chart.... but it could be that if you add a 0 to the x,y axis you get a 3 dimesional chart ie a higher type of expression than just the 2D one... That is the only logical explaination I could make from it...but maybe I am crazy : ) ...and that's fine... better crazy than stuck up : )
