especially with them being 'legendary' now, and on a long enough time line as more and more ways to deal with walkers get printed, theres no reason for them not to be.
people cite some like sorin as being op, but they'll be banned like rofellos and braids. problem solved and you open up a slew of new commanders. give it time. it'll happen.
Considering Sheldon just made this statement last week - "Speaking of planeswalkers, you've probably seen the Ixalan rules changes earlier this week to make them legendary permanents. Although this changes the way PWs will function, it does not change any of the rules of Commander. The only cards which are available to be your commander are legendary creatures or any other card which specifically says that it can be a commander. We were aware the change was coming. As I tweeted, the Commander Rules Committee has recently discussed it and we didn't feel as though a change were warranted." http://www.starcitygames.com/article/35757_Commander-2017-League-First-Look-At-Feline-Ferocity.html
I think it's safe to say it won't be changing soon. Do your research kids before you make kneejerk reactions because of a rules change.
Could you get more condescending?
The thread is less of a knee jerk and more of a hypothetical scenario. The OP is curious about what the community thinks about that scenario. The change in the planeswalkers simply sparked the thread.
So you call the OP saying and I quote, "it's inevitable" hypothetical? Sure thing.

Well, if you actually read the OP you said instead of just looking at the title, you would've seen the part where they ask simply what we think think about this. A title is simply a title, after all.
Maybe you take your own advice and not have knee jerk reactions.
"Yessss continue to fight among yourselves planeswalkers while I build my loyalty. THEN I WILL CONTROL YOUR PATHETIC ARMIES!"
