I think you'll find that they do support later versions.

In my reply the other day I forgot to say that I also use FireDAC to talk
directly to an Azure SQL Instance (Which is very close to  Microsoft SQL Server
2016).

It was exceedingly simple to do the connection.
Set the DriverID=MSSQL
then the server, database, username and password and it worked perfectly.

I then use either dataset components, or run direct queries, on the DB.

This was straight out of the box DX using a TFDConnection
