It is cathode-driven because the RF input is connected to the cathode - 
and nothing else (still looking at the schematic here).

Yes...

The control grid and cathode are not connected in the 30S-1.

G1 is essentially bypassed to ground. It receives a small fraction of 
the *anode* voltage as negative feedback, but it isn't connected to the 
cathode at all.
