why is unity 2017.3.0f3 using bleeding edge mono.exe and not the standard one?

    When rebuilding, I look at my system process list and unity spawns two consecutive instances of mono.exe.

    But why does unity select the version of mono.exe here:
    C:\Program Files\Unity\2017.3.0f3\Editor\Data\MonoBleedingEdge\bin

    instead of where I think it should be here:
    C:\Program Files\Unity\2017.3.0f3\Editor\Data\Mono\bin

    You using .NET 4.6?

    No. I'm using the most conservative settings in the editor.

    Scripting Runtime Version => Stable (.NET 3.5 Equivalent)
    Api Compatibility Level => .NET 2.0 Subset

    Are others seeing the same thing? Is 2017.3.0f3 simply designed to use the bleeding edge mono.exe? Or is there something wrong here with my setup?

    Or is this a bug/oversight by Unity, where they meant to use the normal (non-bleeding-edge) mono.exe but didn't do so?

    Is this something I should be concerned about?

    Is there a way to configure it locally?
