Wow.  I couldn't agree more.  Of course, this all depends upon us.  If we support the former with our vaping dollars, then more companies will follow suit.  Take a look at what the 20W iStick started.  If, however, we jump on the 100W+ mods, that's what we will see more of.  Capitalism, pure and simple.
With the advent of all the new sub-ohm clearomizers, 50W will be the 15W of a year ago; the new de facto standard.  What these new attys do is allow those with no interest in rebuilding the opportunity to experience, at 20-40W, what builders were experiencing in their RTAs, at 10-15W, a year ago.
This is no small thing.  A far majority of vapers have no interest in rebuilding.  But they want the RTA experience.  The SubTanks, Atlantic, Melo, Delta II, etc all make that a reality.  These new clearos also allow those whose lives/situations get in the way of rebuilding the opportunity to enjoy an exceptional vape.  This is revolutionary, folks; a hassle-free, exceptional vape.  The only cost to us is new mods, new attys, more e-liquid, replaceable heads and battery life.  4400mAh+ setups will be almost a necessity or we carry 2 or 3 spare 18650s around with us throughout the day.
I predict that we will see more, smaller mods designed with LiPo batteries as 2015 progresses.  With YiHi's new USB balanced charging board now on the market, I also predict more 7.4V, dual-series (2S) mods coming to market without the concerns of the "stacking effect".
It's definitely an interesting time to be a vaper.  It's also a very bad time to be afflicted with shinyitis.
