My point was, it flopped as a standard. It’s not that it’s good or bad, it’s just not used any more, there are no new devices with FireWire. USB killed it essentially. The same will happen with Thunderbolt, USB 3.x will kill it.
I seriously doubt there will be something that will replace USB. It’s backwards compatible to oblivion and just supports newer and newer things. It’s very hard to beat that.
USB 3.x killing thunderbolt wouldn’t make any sense, USB 4 is based on the Thunderbolt 3 spec. I would agree that USB 4 will replace Thunderbolt but only because it is Thunderbolt
