When asked directly didn't Yoshi P respond by saying its "pure DPS"?

One would think it's not a ranged support role in the way MCH/BRD are.

TO BE FAIR, most classes match MCH/BRD in utility. The support tag comes purely from our mana regeneration which is silly. RDM could still have plenty of utility just like everyone else while still being "pure dps."

Yes, Yoshida explicitly stated that Red Mage is pure DPS type when asked whether it was going to be support-oriented or pure DPS.

That being said, it WILL probably have some kind utility skills, but people shouldn't set themselves up for a disappointment nonetheless.
