It's still so wild to me that this "Kai" version (for lack of a better term) is releasing concurrently with the still airing One Piece. Especially with the recent switch to seasonal release, presumably to eliminate filler, is this remake just gonna peter off after this most recent arc and end with a card telling people what episode number of One Piece they should start from to get the rest of the story?

edit: I just thought about how when this comes out Netflix will have 3 different versions of One Piece to watch and can't stop giggling.

I guess you can call this "The" version.

Even with the switch to seasonal the pacing of the main OP anime still has something to be desired. I wouldn't mind if TOP covered the entirety of the series but that's a huge undertaking and unrealistic. I wouldn't mind it being a thing they keep doing until they can't any longer though. Arcs like Dressrosa really need it. I'd be fine if they stop after Enis Lobby though. Enis Lobby had so much racap and filler for what many people consider the peak of the series and if they had to end anywhere that'd be a fitting place to end on a high note.
