Think you might have misunderstood.

AR (augmented reality) is being rebranded MR (Mixed Reality).

VR will always be around, it is just the fact that it looks as though things are progressing so fast with microsoft & magic leap that it looks as though the next progression after VR will be known as mixed reality.

Hololens is trying to push the keyword "Holo" but Microsoft & Magic Leap are now calling their technology mixed reality apposed to augmented reality.

I hope this kind of makes sense.

Your right, there will always be virtual reality, it just looks like the term augmented reality is fading away to make room for mixed reality.
