I'm sure Canon will continue to produce and develop EF lenses as long as it continues to be profitable.

I'm sure that Canon will continue to make current EF lenses, but every new EF lens they make will necessarily come at the expense of an RF lens they could have made, slowing the development of the R.

Then again, if the EF lenses work on the R at least as well as they work on Canon's DSLRs, and are significantly less expensive than the new R lenses, the EF lenses may serve a dual purpose as not only new lenses for their DSLRs, but as "budget" lenses for the R (with the presumption that RF lenses will be better than EF lenses as a function of the mount).
