Where is the successor to the original EOS R?

EOS R body Line is Finished...

I believe that the EOS R body will not be replaced.  The reason is:

  1. The EOS R's purpose was to answer competitors ASAP to stop consumer departures from Canon before Canon can answer the market with a proper body.
  2. The EOS R was a kind of marketing Proof of Concept to prove Canon's direction for mirrorless full-frame and related features in order to collect feedback from the market.

No more need for EOS R replacement, because now we have these:

  1. RP
  2. R6
  3. R5
  4. R3
  5. R7
  6. R10

Just my guesses...
