If you're a LaTeX user, you're already using LaTeX3 to a very high
extent, even if you don't see it. The current idea is not to replace
LaTeX2e with LaTeX3 as a new version, but to gradually incorporate
elements of LaTeX3 into the LaTeX kernel, like the new syntax, xparse,
etc. LaTeX3 is already present in many aspects of LaTeX, and that is an
undeniable advance. If anyone is interested in the state of the art,
this short talk by Frank Mittelbach at TUG 2020 is very illustrative:
