If you think this logic is wrong, please tell all of us your analysis....
The article says this is a recently discovered document from a Transmission manufacturer (unconfirmed), not from BMW or Toyota. So assuming it's legit, it doesn't insinuate that the 86 platform will be replaced. The only thing we can guess, if you want to play the rumor mill here, is that the Transmission manufacturer will/want to provide Toyota with a transmission that works for both Supra and 86 4 cylinders.
Again, all guesses from an unconfirmed article.
