How Will Chromium-based Edge (ChrEdge) Roll Out When Released?
I've read/heard that when the stable version is released it will override and permentally delete out the old Edge. In other words the old Edge will be gone, and the new Chromium version of Edge will be it's replacement. However someone on here that works for Microsoft can confirm if it's officially true or not.

I'm only a MS Partner not, employee. But, it is my understanding & expectation that Edge C will replace Edge. In actuality Edge replaced IE & Edge C is replacing edge. (Ignore for this discussion that IE's lingering in the shadows) Anyway, yes that is the idea, that new is replacing old.
The thing some of us suspect is Edge Insider Builds may continue after the non-Insider release. Same as people like myself work on Win10 Insider Builds sort of behind the scenes for the next version of the OS. And, thus, Edge would continue to improve & develop, same as we do with & for the OS.

- It's good to see Microsoft partners in the forum cause i Am too!
but anyway, yeah i agree 20H1 is the most probable build for the final replacement.
Microsoft officially named it:
https://mspoweruser.com/windows-10-20h1-finally-gets-a-real-name/
and from the release date, it looks like it's gonna release in the first half of 2020 rather than in spring of 2020, that gives them even more time which is good.
