I can tell you right now I would have no problem dropping $32K down on a STI BRX that had brembos, 50+ more hp, and 50+ more ft lbs of torque along with bigger and stickier tires and some other enhancements. I would be in the market for that car, but at the same time, I am not in the market for a WRX.
I am not convinced a BRZ STI would kill off WRX STI sales or vice versa. And I would not see many BRZ STI's being produced, so the demand would be high I suspect.

I agree - there's obviously room for the BRZ and the WRX to coexist as two high-performance cars at a similar price point, so I don't see that a BRZ STI and a WRX STI wouldn't be able to coexist as two even higher-performance cars at a similar price point.
