Andrea,
your reasoning is sound, but the DayCounter is there in order to
provide TermStructure with overloaded interfaces such as
TermStructure::discount(Time t, bool extrapolate);
TermStructure::discount(const Date& d, bool extrapolate);
The DayCounter is used to implement one in terms of the other.
