Smite isn't just used to survive the blue buff, it's used to quickly take out camps, you have to do twice as much damage to Blue/Red without smite and can net you more gold by getting the mastery and/or successfully last hitting Dragon or Nashor. Not to mention it makes it so you pretty much own your jungle, no one will be able to steal your buffs unless they have smite aswell.
