I can't see it being many years, before 8K TVs go the way of 3D and curved screens.

I think you're wrong in that regard. 8K is a completely different beast to those other design technologies.

Its just a natural progression IMHO but taking longer than anticipated...

8K is pointless. 16K will be the next generation and anything between 4K-16K is just a fad at best. If you aren’t doubling pixels in both dimensions, it’s just an annoyance for compatibility and scaling

8k does double in both directions.

If 8K is not taking off, due to high cost and near complete lack of 8K content, what makes you think people will want to pay even more for 16K? As for 16K content, methinks there is more likelihood of me growing an extra leg, than for such content to become commonplace.
