Now we have nuanced unity. We're all DPS before yoshida.
Trinity was described wrong; it was Tanks, Damage Dealers, and Support (iirc, according to the original EQ lead dev). Healers fell under support, so if you want to split em it was four class types.

FFXIV of course mashed support into all the DD and Healer classes making weird hybrids like bard which ran into issues of players wanting to DD but not Buff.

Like OP said, seems they are streamlining the game even more. Might as well just have all DPS that have a minor "role" if you want to dumb the game down that far.
