How about the other way? Players sticking with 3.5 are going to complain when those Pathfinder NPCs in future APs start kicking their characters' butts with all their new feats, combat bonuses, at-will spell-like abilities, etc. Shortly after that comes the mandatory conversion to PF. I suppose that could be part of the plan, to press Pathfinder customers into buying the new book and locking them into Paizo's house version of D&D. It might work out as a business move, but it belies the claim that they're "sticking with 3.5", and seems to go against the spirit of what people wanted when complaining about 4e incompatibility issues. PF may not be as incompatible as 4e, but it'll still require new rules purchases, and lots of niggling conversions.
