I predict a Mario Odyssey mode for Mario Maker 2, or at least some kind of Cappy compatibility 

The problem with that is that Mario Odyssey doesnt really have a clear artstyle, it mashed up different art styles together. The metro kingdom, per se, is drastically different from the sand kingdom. Which one do you use?

I don't think that's much of a problem. You literally just use the same assets that are in the game. They're only a "different artstyle" from a figurative sense, not a literal one. All the kingdoms are still made in a similar sense, they just look different based on what theme is prioritized for each kingdom. It's not like going from Kirby's Epic Yarn to Yoshi's Island, or from A Link Between Worlds to Breath of the Wild. This ain't Evoland. 

Super Mario 3D World's assets for example actually look pretty close to NSMB's assets when placed in a 2D view (where you can't take advantage of camera angels and the lighting in a 3D scape). But you still see that style in the game (unless I'm wrong and the 3D style isn't actually in the game, with the cat power up being a separate thing, but I doubt it and either way you get my point).

If I had to guess, they'll probably limit it to only one or two kingdoms though. Metro is obviously going to be in the game.
