I'll hazard a public prediction for the record:

Since ES6 does implicit strict opt-in for both classes and modules, by the
time of wide ES7 deployment, sloppy mode will no longer matter much for new
code. Or ES8 at the latest.

It's just a prediction, so no need to argue until we're in the predicted
timeframe.
