As Tue tech improves how far can it go? Will our current 16Mp be laughable

The first milestone will be when the sensor resolution > nyquist rate for
the best lenses, or alternatively the diffraction limit at f/1.4.
i understood that the primary limit in pixel density on sensors has to do
with the fact that as the photosites get smaller, there is more diffraction
of the light hitting the sensor (through microlenses over each "pixel"), to
the point where increasing pixel density will not resolve more detail,
regardless of the lens
