Of course they can make a workable tank kit and call it Red Mage. Of course DRK still has some identity, thats why I said worse, not as bad. And of course this isn't 11, Dark Knight and Red Mage were in a lot more FF games than that.

This whole making sense thing really doesn't. 2/3rd's of Red Mage is damage, the rest is healing. They will always make more sense as a DPS for that reason alone.
Just this reasoning alone shows how little you understand the tank meta, but moving on.

RDM is a perfect fit as tank, simply due to the way they've always been designed. The RDM has always been incredibly open ended design wise, so saying it can't be a tank because "reasons" is really silly.
