I think we will see more efforts which will in the long run aim to remove WebRTC from browsers, under the pretext of security, for a mix of legitimate and nefarious reasons, and the hot/cold enthusiasm for MoQ in certain quarters (i.e. who funds it) is due to how important this end goal is rather than any merits of MoQ.
Thankfully the web is quite stable generally. It would be extremely bad for a lot of people to remove webrtc & directly against the stability the web offers: I highly doubt it's gonna get removed.
That it is the only technology for p2p connection on the web is definitely a very special very different twist from everything else. Yeah that has a little more "risk" but I seriously don't see anyone trying to remove it.
Ideally webrtc wouldn't be the only way to do p2p across the web. It was super exciting when p2p webtransport showed up as an idea, but it's been inactive for a while now. Ideally we could get rid of weirdo protocols like webrtc's SCTP and focus on the new good stuff like QUIC, that webtransport uses!

That's gonna take a long time to happen! So much hardware is WebRTC only. Even if the services migrate.
But anything is possible I won't bet against anything
