at the very least for mid game you can poke with ap yells at minions and the shield still does stack with ap. Not only that, the shield value isn't the shield damage, so you don't need to focus on health for damage.

Plus, there's the fact that Sion has powerful CC, base damages and natural durability so its not completely terrible for him to go ap....

There just hasn't been any pros who dominated with AP Sion yet. I mean look at what happened to Tryndamere; people started building him AP because a pro did well with that.
