Well, of course that is still sooner than ASOIAF.
I was disappointed myself when he said 18 months per book was looking foolishly optimistic. But all things considered...
(I read all his stuff, or else will eventually.)

Anyway, the anticipated-but-not-definite finish date for Stormlight book 5 is 2021.

And if anyone can plan it that far ahead it is him.
