Sure, some companies will use it. Other companies will continue to use specialised focused tools. It's why data engineering is a thing in our industry. We move and prepare data for a set of tools, and we pay good money to do so, because we believe we derive value from those tools. Let's say MySQL offers it, anyone already using MySQL is likely to fence the MySQL instance(s) focused on vector stuff off for various reasons (resilience, different read/write patterns, security, etc.) MySQL as the (imaginary) basis only offers some transferable skills, because this DB will require different care and feeding. Like the difference between Postgres and PG with cstore_fdw, similar, but sufficiently different.
