So very few of the posts here are "speculating about the next firmware" apart from "wah, where is its?!!1!"; and the majority is just noise that the thread is, now, very much off-topic. That it may have been on-topic in the past, or be intended to be on-topic is by-the-by.

(I wasn't involved in the move, but it seems sensible).

However, I can imagine another option - for all the people clamouring for more heavy handed moderation - this thread moves back out of Off-topic and every off-topic post gets deleted.

I'm sure there'll be plenty of posts and threads when PR1.2 is released - it's not going to be missed just because this thread is in a different sub-fora. Hell, if nothing else, you'll get a flashing orange triangle.
