Standardizing on the smaller sensor size obsoletes a lot of expensive wide-angle glass! But, maybe Canon doesn't mind that.

I've thought about this too... in a way, hoping that Canon would introduce
some EF-S L lenses... because the way I see it, you could make a 70-200/2.8L
IS cheaper in EF-S form than regular EF form, because you're using less
glass.  At this point, I guess it's moot since DSLR's are still priced way
higher than the 35mm equivalent, so it doesn't seem like a normal tradeoff.
I think the way of the future is to go smaller and lighter and that APS-C
sensors are here to stay around.  I guess it all depends on the consumer
reaction to the current EF-S lenses.
