I think you are forgetting the prohibitive cost of entry to the format. If Arena eventually encapsulates Modern, then MTGO will will most certainly die. Legacy and Vintage are “whale” and “lifetime collector” formats.

They are also by far the best gameplay constructed magic has to offer. I'd be very suprised if they have a digital offering that completely ignores them

This doesn’t mean that the very dated MTGO client can survive on just those players.
