I agree that there were a lot of misunderstanding going around but it has caused some problems. For new projects you have to choose a platform/framework. If you choose Angular 1 you might have to learn it and release a version of your app with it before Angular 2 is released or just before the migration path is clear. And it is till hard to estimate the migration cost/time. Or you could start with Angular 2 which you knew was not ready. It was and is also unclear exactly when Angular 2 will be "ready" making it a less interesting choice if you have/had a hard date when your app should be released.
