Yeah, that's why I say the general trend, all the Big Boss games after 3 have been non-numbered and it looks like Ground Zeroes is going to continue that. I think Kojima's of the opinion now that the numbered games are for the Solid Snake story, not for side-stories. He keeps mentioning how after 4 he decided Snake's story was over and now that he has more to tell, and I don't see how he'd do that before Snake was actually born unless Ground Zeroes is going to be MG1 retold 50% from Big Boss' perspective or something.
