Basis for speculation is flimsy but it's still not worse than 50-50 percent probability. US DOD report to Congress had mentioned 095 previously. But in last report they mentioned the same time table as before yet replaced 095 with 093b.
That doesn't have to mean much of course. But it is certainly plausible that the project some people were calling 095 is actually going to be named 093b. And that first subs coming out of the new facility will be 093b. That doesn't mean we won't see 095 some day. But it may mean that name will be given to another design. Perhaps one to come out of the said facility after 2025.
