While I'm not discounting your assumption about limited quantum use cases for now, I'm going to suggest that when we think hard about a problem - we as humans usually don't see the true potentials of a technology. We usually assume we understand, but depth of understanding doesn't come until hands on experience, depth of knowledge increase. I'm guessing we will find significant uses cases to replace classical computers.

While not impossible, I would say that it would require a significant change in our understanding of quantum computation. That is, everything we know so far about quantum computing suggests it is only useful in certain complex use cases, and even then, with much help from a classical computer - we don't know any quantum algorithm that could be computed entirely on a quantum computer, they all have classical parts.
