I heard some undocumented rumors about VBA going away sometime in 2020. Is this true?

Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
VBA is not going away, however, no improvements are slated to be made to the UI. The Object Model will continue to be updated as new features are released though.

There are investments being made in the JavaScript API's, which will enable extensibility on all endpoints. For that, see: ScriptLab. That's not at parity with VBA at this point, but new additions are made every week.
