Speculation: If this really takes off and the industry starts making
some money, could the FAA be pressured to expand speeds, weight limits
and # of seats. Include retracts? Maybe incorporate all
non-commercial A/C operations under the LSA rule? It may be far
fetched, but not outside the realm of possibility.

Not a chance. The only way the FAA was convinced to relax the requirement for a
medical certificate was to convince the powers that be that an LSA can't do very
much damage when the pilot has a heart attack. Expand the size or speed of those
planes, and they'll start requiring medicals for that class.
