There will be something more evolved than mutant. Mutants become the flatscans.

I think everyone is making a mistake about homo novissima and what they will feel about other superhumans like the Avengers, FF, Captain America, etc...
Homo Novissima are a merger between man and machine and controlled evolution. I think the closest we have to this are Hank Pym and his merger with Ultron, Tony Stark becoming more and more integrated with his armor and AI to the point where it's hard to know if he is anything other than a machine. In the 811 universe you have Rory Campbell who was critically injured when Rachel turned on him, the Sentinels rebuilt him as a very powerful Cyborg. They even manufactured the harpoon power for Ahab that he could use to disable and track mutants. In Rachel's 811 world they hunted down and killed all the metahumans/mutates because they were a threat to the Human/Machine Ascendancy.
We are MUTANT..Krakoa, FOREVER!!! “Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité”
Makes me wonder if Magneto kept a copy of mothervine if the weaponized parts are removed then it could be used to turn everyone into mutants.
This was basically what would have happened had High Evolutionary won the Evolutionary War back in the late 80's. There was a What If? which explored what would have happened had he won. All super beings (mutate, mutant, Eternal, Inhuman) left the earth to become Eternity, and the evolved humanity continued evolving into what would become a single planetary life form.
Based on history? The most powerful and useful mutants would become the new upper class, and work to openly oppress those with weaker or useless abilities. The irony will be entirely lost on them.
I could see that happening. In fact, that was Apocalypse's and Magneto's entire thing before their origins were fleshed out to make them more sympathetic, more so with Magneto than Apocalypse, but still. Apocalypse's belief in survival of the fittest meant mutants that were "weak" were just as deserving of extermination as nonmutant, non-superpowered humans and Magneto was not the kindest to his Brotherhood in the early days, especially Toad. Even the X-Men's treatment of the Morlocks could come under similar scrutiny or reinterpretation, with that in mind. It is an unfortunate reality that people will always find ways to set themselves above and thus justify oppressing others, and mutants are people, too, for better or worse.
