I could write 1[4-9].[0-9]+ if it suits you better. I dont see any
behavioural differences though.

You need this restriction here to not match any previous (13.[0-1]) versions.

Does
1([4-9]\.[0-9]+|3\.([2-9][0-9]*|1[0-9]+))
suit you better? Its certainly more exact but not so easy to
understand IMHO and you probably need more time to adjust it whenever
you introduce a new version explicitly.
