Is a Modern SharePoint Search Center also on the Modern SharePoint roadmap?

My understanding so far is that the SharePoint homepage is the successor to the old enterprise search center and that it will evolve. But we never know what will happen :) Seems that focus is to bring search out to the work context instead of centering it in one place.

I'm debating myself these days if one is better than the other, or if they should co-exist. I'm leaning towards searching in context.
