Who says it's going to be the First job? I don't think anyone is stupid enough to want that.

I disagree that it's a leaps of logic. We knew a new healer is coming, then in msq emwe got an npc who specifically wants to be the WoL, but by healing people with potion. If they just want to hint in new healer, why specify the potion? If anything, by the recent interview they did intend to make chemist, but have problem with it and turn it into sage. Most probably that's why sage took a long time to develop (unlike reaper which took three months to developed from start to the current build).

As for the "it should be DoM job", I don't really see a problem? Just make them do casting for their skills. If brd can be bow mage I'm sure chemist can too. Just say that they're imbuing the portions with aether before chucking it. Mixing potions? Do it a la TCJ or healer steps, and it would result in three charges of potions (like aetherflow). Magic is just flavor animation anyway.

I love sage, but I don't want them to give up on chemist either.
