Is there a benefit to converting/learning Angular 2 over Angular 4 when moving away from AngularJS?
Is there a reason to not jump directly to Ionic 3 and Angular 4 from Ionic(1) and AngularJS(1)?

Angular4 is Angular2.
It was called in first releases Angular2, but cause of growing versions they called it just Angular.
Upgrading from AngularJS to Angular: https://angular.io/docs/ts/latest/guide/upgrade.html
First sentence:
Angular is the name for the Angular of today and tomorrow. AngularJS is the name for all v1.x versions of Angular.
Angular's weekly meeting notices: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rC5dz7AkCZP813daT_bccbS-20OLmXgBVi50CSKx148/pub#h.4fbeacydrf6u
Branding
Last week blogged that we prefer 'Angular' for v2.x+ and 'AngularJS' for v1.x
We've made this change throughout everywhere we can find in docs, wiki, etc.
