Following that logic dare we hope that Toyota will put a small turbo engine? Perhaps the one from the GR4 Yaris? It's not much more powerful, although it is quite a bit torqueier, so probably would require an uprated transmission (and diff?). Mazda and Fiat did it, I'm sure Subaru and Toyota can as well!
And if that's the case where the Toyota has a turbo and Subaru is NA, it will limit the choices of prospective buyers dependent on their preferences.
