Since they're not offering some 35mm film camera and they're not
offering some FF digital, there would be no need to develop some DFA
lens. Assuming they are developing a DFA set of lenses, including a
fairly expensive 1.0, they are probably developing the camera(s) that
will be using those lenses. 35mm film or 35mm-sized digital, aka FF.
Providing those lense just for the sake of we oltimers that still use
35mm cameras would be even more far fetched than building a FF digital.
LF (all that assuming that information on lenses IS real, of course)

If this roadmap is for real, it means Pentax is releasing a FF camera,
Nope.
Doesn't mean that at all.
Pentax can be:
- making lenses that will work with the installed base of 35mm film
cameras
- making lenses that will work with a Samsung full frame camera,
since Samsung has the money and grudge to go fight Sony
- changed what DFA means, such as to "with the adapter, works on the
MF camera body"
It could even be all three of those at once.
Or, of course, they could be contemplating a full frame camera, and want
to give themselves some leeway with lenses depending on which way they
make up their mind, and in the meantime, causing mass outbreaks of hope
in the customer base is a fine thing.
