Implications of vinyl on musical trends?

I’ve been super enamored with vinyl since making the leap from digital.  My mom gave me her old records; mother-in-law gave us hers; aunts and uncles have offered theirs, etc.  Throughout my life it seems vinyl was always around.  Maybe it was tucked away in a closet, but it was there—albeit a bit dustier during the 1990s.  As a result of its ubiquitous nature, it logically influenced musical trends in a similar hand-me-down sort of way (e.g. blues to Zeppelin et al).

I’ve watched over the years as rock & roll struggled and was always a bit vexed by it.  I generally chalked it up to aging; but, it struck me that maybe the decline of vinyl directly contributed to the decline of rock & roll.  Could it be that the decline of vinyl caused some sort of musical schism?  Or, maybe the “decline” was simply another evolution (though to what, I cannot say)?  I find it interesting that the resurgence of vinyl seems to correlate with a younger rock movement (e.g. Greta Van Fleet).  Nothing deep, profound, or particularly meaningful…just something I was thinking about on a random Saturday.
