details of how compatible init parameter works

What is the difference between setting compatible to 11.2.0 versus setting it to 11.2.0.1.0?
I would have to guess that setting it to only 3 places means that it'll automatically use features on any new patchset for 11.2.0 that is installed, but if I set to five places it will only allow features up to that particular patchset. At the same time, I don't believe patchsets usually change the disk structure so maybe it doesn't matter.

We haven't been able to find this in the manuals, does anybody know?

Howdy, Stranger!
