I am reporting about some confusion as to which version of AUCTeX is
current and stable. On the AUCTeX home page
(https://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/), it is stated that version
13.3 is the current version, but the version on the GNU ELPA site is
14.0.5.

This is an inconvenience for anyone who uses automatic package updates.

Functionally, version 14.0.5 has at least one shortcoming that makes it
unusable for me: invoking org-edit-special from an org-mode latex src block
opens a buffer in latex-mode (not LaTeX-mode). This is a change from
version 13.3.

Either way, something is amiss.
