You can think of it pretty simply.

3D V1 is better than 2D V1, but 2D V2 is probably still better in terms of ratings than 3D V2

Also, 2D can only got to V5, but 3D can get to V7. So:

2V1 < 3V1 < 2V2 < 3V2 < 2V3 < 3V3 < 2V4 < 3V4 < 2V5 < 3V5 < 3V6 < 3V7

Logically, anyway. Personally (I'm 60 years into the game) I went through maxing 2D until V5, then started making 3D games. It probably wasn't the best route but by that time I could level "level 1" stuff once every game, so 3D progressed quickly.
