Except they (well, Tom LaPille anyway) noted that it was odd that Modern was starting out without the allied fetchlands and indicated that this would be changed at some point in the future. As you can see from here:
"As with any format, there are some cards whose conspicuous absence will be felt. In particular, the Onslaught fetch lands feel like a strange omission, when the Zendikar fetch lands combined with the Ravnica dual lands will likely be important to the format's mana bases. I admit that it is strange. However, right before Zendikar released, the format contained only Onslaught fetch lands. I played many Extended tournaments with a green-blue deck that would have loved the option to find a Forest with Misty Rainforest, but I made do with Polluted Deltas, Flooded Strands, and a few Breeding Pools. For now, the lack of allied-color fetch lands would be one of the format's idiosyncrasies. There would be others that we would discover over time, and that's okay too."
Where did he say that? I know he's mentioned how they want to give people access to 10 dual lands whenever possible, but not anything about them not printing half land sets in a block. And unless there's some extremely recent post I missed, I can't think of any "blatant" claim that fetchlands will be in a set of 10.
