By then Gen X will have replaced them, and going on about reminiscing about how mix CDs burned from MP3s downloaded from AOL sounded better than the vinyl and TikToks the kids are listening to will be the “we drank from the hose was our curfew” of the time

Meh, unlikely. Gen X doesn't have the sheer numbers to drive and sustain culture. The Boomers number something like 74,000,000 and Millennials are around 83,500,000. Meanwhile Gen X only has about 49,000,000 so we're sandwiched between two Generations that are nearly double our size.
