I think CXL devices in general will become more and more common given that other players on the hardware side are now supporting CXL 1.1 / 2.0 protocols (Sapphire Rapids / 4th Gen EPYC[2]) and it's a way to scale memory past the limitations of a single machine and the number of memory slots / DIMM slots. For now it's PCIe 5.0, but given that PCIe 6.0[2] will come around with PAM4 signalling, FEC and FLIT mode on CXL 3.0 spec it may be not be as bad or slow with this future configuration.
