This is an issue with Riot's class system, in my opinion - specifically the sub-classes. Sylas is a burst champion and Riot's dedicated burst sub-class is a sub-class of mage, so there you have it... even though Sylas isn't a mage.

In my opinion, mage should be a sub-class of DPS and not have sub-classes of its own. Sylas would then fall under another sub-class of DPS, or perhaps a sub-class of Fighter (since basically every game with a class system can be boiled-down to Fighter/Tank, DPS and Support, and the distinction between Fighters and DPS is usually self-sufficiency - i.e. do they need protection, and Sylas doesn't).
