Yeah, no question; H264 had a 10+ year head start and entrenched itself as part of the Blu-ray and online video sharing space. Once AV1 has similarly-largely-scoped things then it'll probably take a lot of h264's market, and it'll be royalty-free from the get-go.
I definitely want AV1 to become the "video standard to rule them all", but once H264's patents expire I think I'm also ok with it being the standard as well.
