Unless you are filing as EB1, expect to (and plan to) not get it in your lifetime unless the govt changes something.

Plan to, I agree with that. But "Expect to" as well?

I'm asking mostly rhetorically (since I know of a handful of people that applied as well as got their non-EB1 green cards within the span of my lifetime), but slightly curiously as well (if you know any recent trends, etc).

Plan to is absolutely the best advice as far as I'm concerned
