They certainly need to *have* plans and ideas. They just don't need to

As far as I can tell, none of the other manufacturers publishes any kind
of "road map" of future products and I believe they're wise to refrain
from doing so. I think Pentax (perhaps with a "push" from Hoya) has come
to the same conclusion.
Possible, but... if so, why don't they just stop update it?
You don't really need to make a roadmap fade avway.
