Basically, yeah. if you've reached max CDR you're not in the laning phase any more; if you're near creeps, you're probably pushing, and I just don't like characters that 'hook it and book' and just blow all their abilities up front and are impotent the rest of the fight like good old ap sion. I build to counteract that, rather successfully, but because of his abilities being near exclusively single target, he just needs a bit extra - of course his early game is still stupidly strong, so riot probably doesn't want to push his curve into the later stages. Just a personal want.
