That's like claiming BLM is not a turret because of firestarter and thundercloud procs. In addition to swiftcast and triple cast.

The job is a turret 90% of the time. The remaining 10% is composed of "dash in, spend 3 GCDs in melee and then jump out". And that's largely due to how slowly mana is generated and how the sword skills and the spells don't interact (using a melee attack removes chainspell, for example).
