It's a particularly unhelpful comment. There are KDE versions, it's just that
KDE's distributed software has been - according to this
https://www.kde.org/download/ - separated in to Applications, Desktop, and
Framework and so now there are versions for all of these.
So yes with hostile pedantry one can claim "There is no KDE version."
truthfully. But also truthfully there are KDE versions, just that there is no
single KDE version as the [KDE] software has been separated out and now several
version numbers are needed to specify the full nature of the KDE software
installed.
$ sudo apt show plasma-workspace libkf5coreaddons5 | grep -E "Package|Version"
will give the Plasma Workspace and KDE framework (KF) version numbers eg on a
Kubuntu system.
Aside: TBH, that kde.org/download/ page is one of the worst web pages I've
seen, the homepage offers a big call to action "get KDE software" and that page
offers the casual explorer nothing. If you ignore the big button that promises
downloads and instead follow a news item from the homepage (eg
https://dot.kde.org/2016/07/05/kde-plasma-57) then you'll find that you get
download links with version numbers and a tiny bit of visual design to help
guide you. It looks designed to prevent people from installing KDE.
