I don't see this (at least for LaTeX). If I'm using a lot of big packages (say komascript, hyperref, pgf, mhchem, ...), then most of the code is not about to be re-written. So even if some new package uses quite a lot of Lua (say a LuaTeX equivalent of fontspec + microtype), most of the code I'm relying on is still TeX-based. -- Joseph Wright
