Oops, sorry, I had the wrong URL in my clipboard and didn't notice. It
should have been:

https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201260

Basically, "OS X" and "macOS" do not represent different version
numbering series. They're just different prefix names applied by Apple
to the one version numbering series used over the past couple of
decades or so. See the "Is there any difference between Mac OS X and
macOS?" paragraph near the top of
https://setapp.com/how-to/full-list-of-all-macos-versions.

Apologies for the confusion. (And I'm sure Apple offers the same apology.) 😉
