Uuuh last I read the "president" of Iran is just a public figure. The real power lies in the Supreme Leader Ayatollah. So likely he will place another puppet as president and that'll be it.
Yes, it's understood this is not the primary position of power, but it's part of the circle of governance which includes roles as "stepping stones" and it's very likely this incumbent was being groomed for the next logical position up the chain. He has a vice, who is empowered (however meaninglessly) to step into the role in the interim.
I think you're saying the same thing as me more succinctly. It's unlikely to be a moment of change.

Iran have a very complex government actually: https://www.monde-diplomatique.fr/local/cache-vignettes/L890... not much up to date but I think it still reflect current state of things, just with some different names.
Supreme Leader is like Charmain of the Board.
President is like COO/CFO.
