I doubt the Note is going anywhere. Everyone is saying it makes no sense, but Samsung has made it their business to release models that make little sense from our viewpoint, and they continue to do so. I think they recognize that there is a cult following for the Note so they will continue to cater to that group. Also, they rely on a release schedule in August to make headlines right before the announcement of a new iPhone.
Maybe they decide the regular Note isn't needed, but there must have been enough sales of it last year for them to come out with another one this year. But with the gimped specs, I feel like this model is there to ease the price sticker shock of the Ultra version and they intend that most people would get the Ultra version because Note fans, like I mentioned, is sort of a cult that'll throw money at it. However, it seems that a lot of people liked the smaller Note 10 last year so it seemed like a no brainer they would make a Note 20 (which in my opinion is way too gimped if the leaks are true). But Samsung can say that the Note series starts at 999 Euro in marketing.
I think the media starts this buzz out every year that the Note may go away.
