Thank you for your message.
We do not have this data at the moment;
However please feel free to keep in touch with us to know about all our latest news.
I wouldn't worry about that reply, it seems more like a stock response, and Devialet never seem to say anything about what they're doing.
FWIW, even if they skip a generation or two of products before they include MQA, you're unlikely to miss out on many MQA titles unless there's a huge industry-wide surge of enthusiasm for it - there's barely anything in the format. Sure, Tidal may enable it soon, but my hunch is the extended delay is because they're in the same position - there's no music.
I found them a bit annoying personally, but the Shiit team had this to say about DSD and MQA (posted on another forum somewhere). It works if you click on vimeo button.
