More likely, it would just mean that they may only release the first few expansions on PS3, but at some point down the road, there may be additional expansions that don't get a PS3 version if the PS3 can't support whatever new features SE wants to add to them at that point. ARR, Heavensward, and likely the next expansion or two after that —anything that gets an initial release on PS3— would continue to work on PS3.

Similarly, Final Fantasy XI and most of its expansions came out on PS2, but the final expansion, Seekers of Adoulin, which came out in 2013, did not. (At least the North American market didn't get it for PS2. Japan did.) That was more than a decade after XI released, though. I think we have quite a while yet before PS3 is as outdated as PS2 was in 2013.
