When will the transition of Ethereum from PoW to PoS take place?
Do you think miners will join ETC?

There's no fixed date. Phase 0 of ETH 2.0 is already running. Check here: https://launchpad.ethereum.org/en/
The launch of the other phases is not decided. Devs have regular meetings and debate on when it's ideal.

In a perfect world, PoW Ethereum will be a subchain on ETH 2.0. So miners will still be able to mine, but the rewards will be lower and lower. I'm expecting miners to fork again and create a new ETH chain.

Going back to ETC is not an option. The current ETH chain is not accepted by the ETC community.

Some people say they are delaying it on purpose. Could that be true? If yes, what is the reason?

Maybe they're not sure how it will all play out.
 
probably increases the hype to avoid a collapse of value in the short term ... but it may also be that they want to rest assured to then avoid rewinding the chain
