Chances next update includes land
I like people with a positive outlook, because I certainly don't have one - generally speaking. And I say giving new land a 75% chance is very positive indeed. I look at it this way - there's been ...

Under the context that squidport is an annual update or at least more than a one time event, that statement could mean that more land will be granted during the next squidport update.
I think it's a bit of a leap to presume that an (as of now) one-time update is or will be annual. While it's true that the tense of "except during the squidport update," is mildly ambiguous since no indicators can really be put on those words, a different phrase would (likely) be used to indicate the future tense. Something like, "unless there's another squidport update," or "except for the next squidport update." But since there was a squidport update in the past, and it did include land, the logical presumption is that Homer was speaking in the past tense about the update we know for sure exists. Until there's a stronger indicator to the contrary, I will take it as a throwaway joke rather than a promise.

17 buildings are listed as being on squidport (Frying Dutchman not one of them). 8 of which were released in the squidport update last year. That leaves 9 more buildings they could release for Squidport. It's not a guarantee they will, just a possibility. I'm not sure an additional squidport update is a leap. And personally I think if the already space restricted squidport sees an update, I think the water and land could see another expansion. That's just what I think. I could be wrong, but feel good about the likelihood. They didn't load land in the files for nothing. And that quote is way too vague to say one way or the other. Plus...rumors of the camera changing and landing zones going amiss...seems like they are planning a big update with land included.
