Well Chris, I don't think that anyone has ruled out using Vulkan on OSG, it just that the verdict is out about adoption. Besides, as I have learned from my resent VR experience, sometimes early adoption is not the wise course of action.
As for me, I will adopt Vulkan when I have a good understanding of how it works and the standards are stable. It took awhile before the standards for GLSL to be ironed out. I'm worried about it being the same way for Vulkan.
