What are the chances there will still be a 980ti falling somewhere between this and the 980?
Fairly high chance, having 12GB on this Titan X gives some leeway for releasing a more reasonably priced 6GB version later on.
Compute is gone?

I beg to differ. It's actually much improved over original Titan save Dual Precision.
Thermally limited? Explain. All GPUs these days are thermally limited.
Titan and Titan Black were marketed as a prosumer card offering DP performance previously reserved for workstation cards. The Titan X has dropped that feature, not something that should just be glossed over, it's a Titan not a 980Ti/985/990.
As for the thermals, from Anandtech's review:
Speaking of clockspeeds, taking a look at our average clockspeeds for GTX Titan X and GTX 980 showcases just why the 50% larger GM200 GPU only leads to an average performance advantage of 35% for the GTX Titan X. While the max boost bins are both over 1.2GHz, the GTX Titan has to back off far more often to stay within its power and thermal limits. The final clockspeed difference between the two cards depends on the game in question, but we’re looking at a real-world clockspeed deficit of 50-100MHz for GTX Titan X.
