I think it will be more like Racket and PLT Scheme. It wasn't that long ago that the named changed but I suspect most people on HN wouldn't know what I was talking about if I mentioned PLT-Scheme and DrScheme. The rebranding is similar as well, just as PLT-Scheme really was doing something different than the rest of the scheme out there (as far as keeping up with modern coding practices and expectations etc) RStudio and the tidyverse team have fundamentally changed what it means to write R. I wouldn't be surprised if in 5 years people talk about "doing stats in Posit" as short hand for "modern R tooling with current (tidyverse related) best practices".
