Wouldn't the TimeCapsules still work over wired connections, just like any other hard drive, even if the networking AFP protocol support is dropped?

No, afp is application layer. It doesn't matter how the device is connected at layers 1 or 2.

You could shuck the disk and use it directly, though. Then it's just a disk, not a time capsule.
