Ahh... yes I have seen a number of affiliated stations change. But I expect network origination to maintain 720p until superseded with 1080p. But the issue is moot as linear scheduled over-the-air program distribution is superseded by other methods of delivery.

The important thing to remember is that today's commercialization of video media is through multi-platform delivery. This means the content must at some point be rescaled to another format. Interlace is totally irrelevant and is detrimental to the new world of multi-platform delivery.
