Why the version of linux-header is different from linux kernel package

I have also wondered this, but this is not T2 specific weirdness. I have seen the same case in numerous other distros also. It has something to do with Kernel internal structures and application level ABI interface of kernel parts. For example see this web link:
http://kerneltrap.org/node/6536I don't know why T2 has different linux header package than the actual supported kernel, but I have always assumed it has something to do with how glibc and libc libraries are compiled in T2 (I have understood that some people prefer to have kernel headers matching the version used to compile libc or glibc package, not necessarly the same as kernel itself).
Other people just overwrite kernel headers package with the headers from self-compiled kernel package. I'm part of this group because I use couple of applications which expects to find latest Kernel enum and define entries.
I'd like to know what is the "correct" way to solve the difference between "stock kernel headers" and "latest self-compiled kernel" headers?
