I both agree and disagree.

I think they new that baring something wonky this would not be the last edtion of D&D...I think they also went into this with there eyes wide open. They figured on 3 basic power sources, and 1 per year (more or less) with power suplments coming out regularly. I also asume they think tey can handle the 'wind down' of no new PHB book for 1 year.

so my guess is WotC put a guess of 5-8 years for this edtion. and in one way that is planned obsolescence...
