Probably not. But the reverse is also true. People will buy whatever is the fastest for their price range at the time. I’d be pretty happy to get a 4080 for the same price as a 3080 a few months ago, and not have to upgrade for an extra couple years…

That said I don’t even really want a 4K monitor, let alone have one already. And I have no interest in 200Hz gaming, 120Hz is more than enough for me. I think the truly functional real time ray tracing and high end VR support is the only reason I’d consider it now. But it’s irrelevant for me since I just overpaid for an (MSRP, still) 3080 earlier this year. Oh well.

Honestly though I do get your point - IMO the big problem isn’t necessarily that there is no use for faster cards, it’s that the market is so saturated with SKUs no one can figure out what the fuck they should get any more… I feel like a lot of “last gen” cards are either going to get very cheap and/or lose OEMs a bunch of money…
