Your theory, in general, makes sense, but I disagree with the conclusion; the reason being: money. Bungie will make this game so it'll sell as much as possible and will continue to be played so they can release new DLC, be worshipped by fanboys, etc etc.
Now, onto my point. Halo isn't the first game of its type. It's similar to the overall concept of older games like Marath (yes I know it was made by Bungie) and Quake. However, nowadays, how many popular games are there that have similar multiplayer? None.
What does this have to do with being class-based, you say? Well, there isn't just one or two popular class-based games, there are many. CoD, BF: Bad Company, Battlefield: 1943, Star Wars Battlefront (if they end up making a third), the list goes on.
So Bungie would be foolish for making Reach class based for multiple reasons:
1. They would be following in the footsteps of the less successful franchises.
2. The game wouldn't be different anymore and, because CoD has more experience with classes, their games would be better.
3. Why ruin a good thing? Halo 3 still sees staggering numbers of players after such a long time, and will probably still have substantial numbers by the time Reach comes out.
