Default Bike Packing

Do you suppose that gravel bikes that are gaining popularity are really yesterday's bike packing bikes - which are sort of off-road touring bikes?

In magazines and media in general yes to a extent.

In real life? No folks seem to use them like myself as a way to pick and
choose roads/trails you want to ride on, in the same way lot of media buzz
with 650b essentially Monster cross bikes, but most bikes you see out and
about and indeed being sold are 35/40mm tires.
