While I have no specific knowledge of what Canon plans to do with the M system in the future, I’ll be very surprised if it’s retired in less than 4 years. IMHO, it’s a very capable system in a size and weight that isn’t touched by the R system, and I think unlikely to be touched by the R system (even with the S variants rumored) due to the size of the RF mount.

It looks like the R50 just proved you wrong.  It has a deeper grip than your M50 II, but is otherwise smaller and lighter.

I have an M50 MKII along with a selection of EF-M Canon and SIgma lenses. (This is all in addition to my EOS APC-C DSLRs and a collection of EF-S and EF lenses.) Given what you get from the M series in terms of size, weight and bang for the buck, I expect I’ll be using it 5 years from now. (Who know in 5-6 years time the hot new thing might be the T system with TF mount and I will just skip the R system all together 😀)
