Actually, I try to compromise. I play Soraka a lot, and her Infuse is a great harass tool (especially if maxed first, which I almost always do). Good range, forbids immediate retaliation through spells, and it's freaking free! While Starcall will push your lane as a side effect, and has a very short range so you have to put yourself in danger.

Most supports can do great harass even without farm, as long as they max their harass spell first.
