So Why assume removal of Classes?

[Starlord]

back then there was a info from Yoshi said that player have to choose between Dark Knight or PLD, but there were voice against that so they ll look into it. But the info are a year old, so thing might change. So the OP was not wrong when say ppl jump the gun, because they are jump the gun atm.

Dark Knight (DK) does not requried class, mean DK can required something else but they will not tell you atm, at the live letter maybe

They also said no Prereq, nothing like ( 30 class/job, 15 class/job) will exist in the DRK Job ( and probably future jobs as well.)

Yes we need more info. Yes they didn't say "abolish classes", but I feel they are implying it. We will just have to see ( only 5-6 more monthsish till Expansion).
