I think Sumire will indeed be transferred to give room to Sarada to grow as a character. Since Boruto has a very high opinion of Sumire, he would probably won't even pay attention to Sarada if Sumire was around. I hope she reappears eventually and has found new ways to use her bond with the Nue to make her a valuable ally for Boruto. I don't think Denki was ever meant to be a Genin, he wanted to work at his father's company and was interested in Jutsu based technology, which is hinted as something that is going to be playing a big role in Boruto's era. So he could also be revisited when they have need of him for an specific arc in which he will probably play a big role. Since he would be busier working than the other kids it would make sense he doesn't hang around with them anymore. Iwabe is the one I am worried about, what if he fails the exam despite his and Boruto's best efforts then starts throwing Kawaki hints, takes his hat off and turns out his hair looks like Kawaki's? I mean he is supposed to be very promising as a potential Ninja and is only being held back by courses he probably won't even need as a Ninja just because Naturo and his generation said that things were different now. Besides Boruto is shown to get along better with Iwabe than say Inojin, so is weird he isn't really shown hanging around with Iwabe anymore. I agree Namida, and Izuno could end up being Metal Lee's teammates which would explain why Metal Lee isn't shown hanging around with his teammates, since they are already close friends with each other but probably don't get along that well with Metal. And it would be a nice to have the two other girls in the class beside Sumire that were actually polite to Boruto make it to the Genin years.
