You're right, people submitting for academic publications will still need to use LaTeX until those institutions change their practices.

If that group comprises the vast majority of people who might have a use for a programmatic typesetting environment, and if the use of LaTeX by academic institutions represents current, expert insight about LaTeX's continued superiority and not simply organizational inertia, then Typst is irrelevant and pointless.

Big "if"s, though.

Long term user of LaTeX. I did try Typst and it has is advantages main one it compiles faster. I am sticking with LaTeX and I don't find it difficult to use, write packages and classes, as I did invest the time to understand it and learn the language. Academic institutions, understand its superiority and also want to protect their archives. Maths has a long shelf-life. LaTeX also has a very good civilized community. LaTeX as it stands now has no comparative competitor.
