remeber that that very incomplete still. Think abount encyclopia 960 times that pile to cover most played lines ignoring all sidelines. I mean if carlssen spend 1/4th of time studing openings wonder how many lifetimes youwould need if there is 960 opening positions. Nope opening theory in sense we have it today will not exist.

sooner or later

I don't like Chess960 that much. It's ok. In my opinion opening theory will be a problem for classical chess in the future. Chess960 looks like the easiest way to fixed that.
