Its inevitable IMO.
People genuinely think hardware manufacturers skip BC to resell games but in actuality they always make platforms BC when it makes sense.
Nintendo has done it every time difference in storage medium hasn't been an issue. Microsoft has done it for pretty much every platform in some shape or form, Sony removed proper BC from the PS3 because for a struggling platform with a price too high, the physical hardware implementation to allow PS2 BC was one of the easiest things to cut to save them money. PS4 isn't Because PS3's cell.
Next generation of hardware isn't going to have drastically different hardware or feature a change like PPC to x86. Likely AMD will supply the chips for both Microsoft and Sony, so BC is to be expected.
