It's a minor revision increment. Complaining about it is like complaining that a revision control system generates a new revision ID on commit.
Also I quite a lot prefer this to having a doc and a separate errata like some authorities do. Just creating a new version allows that you only need to write latest version once. Errata just means doing a diff.

The errata idea was necessary with the limitations of printed documentation. With online docs it is easy to do a diff, provided the docs are in some kind of straight-text format, e.g. markdown. It’s hopeless trying to do it with a word-processor format.

You can absolutely revision control document formats, and the concepts are in fact the entire basis for collaborative document editing systems (like google docs). The difference is that the application has to handle the revision control instead of external tools like git or diff.
