On the contrary (for many of the newer players) the x.1 PvP updates usually bring some very big job changes. Very big, on the magnitude of job identity level changes. The most recent example being the shift from ShB PvP to EW PvP and crystalline conflict style job kits.

So although Frontline specifically wont get any updates, the job changes themselves will surely completely break the current meta. The addition of level 100 abilities in the PvP job kits alone will cause things to change considerably. I expect to see a few old abilities completely changed or even outright removed (miracle of nature, salted earth, riddle of earth, etc.) So it will be fun to see what the new OP jobs are, haha.
I really hope you're right. What worries me is at no point in any of the PLL or Notes has any reference been made to what is currently wrong with FL. And if we follow recent trends and rebalancing/changes in jobs are based on the 5v5 mode, I don't see any of the structural changes in FL being addressed at all. Like if the meta changes, it'll be a CC-based accident and may well be for the worse.
