Thank you for the detailed response. Can you share anything on future options, like what you'll do if League survives another ten years, or is that too uncertain at this time?

Surely you mean "When League has survived another ten years..." :)
As League evolves we are constantly re-evaluating the platforms it runs on and how best to support the players we have. As the low end toasters drop off the list, we'll bump up the min-spec and start to use more and more modern features. This will allow us to make the game look better and run faster with even more content and features. As for what APIs we'll use then, I can't say. Hopefully something awesome - ask me again in 10 years.
