Your post contradicts itself, you're saying that he should buy a tear but not use her abilities much. Seraphs won't be a factor until the very lategame in that case, meaning that you could have used the cooldown reduction and heal from Mikael's to save people a lot more during the game than the extra AP from Seraph/Archangel. Or you could just have bought Athenes to get AP, more cooldown reduction and the chalice.

Archangel truly shines with other mana items, and the only one I can think of that support Janna would buy is Zeke's, but even that doesn't give much mana (unless you're going for a tanky support Janna with Frozen Heart/Iceborn Gauntlet, but when are you going to get that Archangel then?).

Last but not least, since Janna doesn't spam her abilities, just as you said, the extra mana is often wasted and chalice is enough to manage her mana. If you're going AP support Janna there are so many other items you need aswell, and probably one that gives mana regen and cooldown reduction that I don't know when or why you would get that tear.
