Well, my Motorola G5+, purchased in August and on 7.0, came with an icon for Duo prominently displayed. Hangouts not installed by default. (Nor Allo, I now see.)

So, Hangouts is not facing some declared or expected EOL, at this point?

It's already marked as "classic" in the help section for Meet.

> If you use hangouts.google.com for video calls, or need help on chat, visit the classic Hangouts Help Center.

I can confirm. New Android phones ship with Duo and no Hangouts.
