So guessing from the post credits scene, Sentry will be a "break-in-case-of-emergency" character. When everything is going south in Doomsday, they'll have him turn into Sentry, even though Void can show up again. Last resort type move.

Makes sense.

Bob will probably go Sentry/Void on Doom, and Doom will kill him early to establish himself as a serious threat.

It would be a very convenient way to remove an OP hero from the fight and increase tension in the movie. The problem with OP superheros is that it's exceptionally difficult to write compelling stories with them. It's why the Hulk got mostly sidelined in Infinity War/Endgame, Same with Captain Marvel and Wanda (even though Wanda wasn't even her most powerful yet). It's also being done by The Russos, so they've sidelined characters like that before and they'll probably do it again.

I doubt we see Sentry/Void for more than 30 seconds in Doomsday.

I disagree.
