I think the reason behind the CDR here is that it's mandatory -- Ryze can't function properly without max cooldown reduction, whether it's on his current kit or his rework. I wish they went the way of incentivizing CDR builds, though, by having him gain bonuses from building cooldown reduction instead of automatically filling him in.
