the thing is you have other supports that provide better things in terms of lockdown, and what you are forgetting is although he has a nice silence, adc's arent affected by silences as much as other people. Maybe against ezreal he would have a niche counter lane, but then he also has very limited mobility. granted so do most supports, but when you are trying to be the one locking opponents down it helps. In the end, if you really want a silence pick lulu, if you want them stunned for 2.5 sec pick thresh/zyra/supportilus. He can work as a support but will never be viable.
