Is 5D III expected to eventually work with the wireless adapter, or is that tong in cheek wishful thinking?

Firmly in cheek. We'll never get that.

Just speculating: apparently a 5DS (understandbly) and 7D2 (???) warranted this nice functionality, but Canon wanted 5D3 owners to get a 5D4.

It looks like the entire release of the W-E1 was to soften 'feature set envy' on what the 5D4 got that the 5DS didn't, i.e WiFi. That, I get. But why the 7D2 warranted the trouble to Canon to do the lifting on the firmware and not the 5D3 I can only chalk up to the 5D3 having a better option available in the 5D4 whereas the 7D3 was going to be a while at that time.

Only for the DataHoarders among us.

Or if you have a 5D3.
