While the UI version is up in the 30's the platform version is the one folks should key off of and it's currently v14.

I disagree. This would be like displaying a Webkit version when talking about Chrome versions.

For those without Windows, this is what's displayed at the bottom of the settings panel:

Hi @Viper007Bond!

I work on MS Edge. Please see our blog post over versioning:

For sites or other resources that are primarily concerned with tracking availability of web standards and other developer-facing features, we recommend tracking against the EdgeHTML version number, rather than the Edge app version number (described further below).

And other resources like the popular ua-sniffing project uap-parser/uap-core or sites like

caniuse.com
kangax.github.io/compat-table/
html5test.com
saucelabs.com/platforms
browserstack.com/list-of-browsers-and-platforms

Thanks for the additional context, both about who you are and more importantly about the prior art. You've convinced me. 👍

This has regressed further as there is currently no Microsoft Edge version displayed on http://browsehappy.com/

Most likely caused by #37, which can be fixed by #39.
