I admire your optimism.

They'll do what was done with Wheel of Time. The publishers will gather his notes, hire a writer (One who has a similar writing style and/or genre interest and experience), and this writer will complete based on those and will have to adopt a degree of creativity to construct the narrative.

Pretty sure GRRM has said he doesnt want anyone to finish it in the case he cant. I dunno who owns those rights though.

When someone starts buying a series there's a tacit agreement that that series is going to be finished at some point, or people wouldn't have bought it in the first place.

Disagree. People watch shows that are either already cancelled or renewal is not confirmed. Thats essentially what this is. In general, people will still consume incomplete art.
