Conceivable but not likely. Some group might some day put SOMETHING together, but I wouldn't be holding your breath.
The hardware in the 950 XL is more or less the same as a Nexus 6P as far as the main components go.

Microsoft never had a strategy or plan. Most Windows phones were low or midrange devices, and the few higher-end models were almost always exclusive to a single carrier. There was no continuity, and when higher-end devices reached EOL, users had no upgrade path unless they were going to bounce between carriers.
Windows Phone also never had a clear-cut halo device. If MS had said "This is the Surface Phone", made sure it was available from all 4 carriers, and then 18 months later released the Surface Phone 2, they'd probably have at least 20% of the market right now.

I hope you WP enthusiasts get you what you want, but that article again highlights how badly MS borked Windows Phone. They didn't even include CDMA support in Windows 10 Mobile? Really? That's roughly half of all US mobile subscribers. Way to crap on your own market.
