I definitely don't see that happening, especially in the next year or two. There are only 2-3 racers around here I've noticed on discs, and most people aren't buying new bikes every other year.
Personally, I won't be going to discs for the forseeable future, and likely never.
Also, trainer compatibility with discs? I guess that's a thing. Roof racks, too? So many additional pita details with discs for me,
