Getting rid of the return pad on LeBlanc's W is a MUCH bigger nerf then what you make it seem. You have to rememeber that in order for LeBlanc to deal damage with her W she is putting herself in MELEE RANGE! Think of what she would be like in teamfight, using her W to engage a squishy and then she finds herself in the middle of the enemy team. It would be like a Nidalee jumping in a teamfight in cougar form, but Nidalee could actually widdle them down from a distance. Think of her laning phase then, in lane you poke with QW. After this combo that would mean LeBlanc has to walk back to her original position, where more than likely her enemy would deal damage back plus she'd be recieveing additional damage from minion aggro. Theoretically your also halving her mobility.

Also by removing her return pad your actually taking some bit of her identity. LeBlanc is known for her tricky playstyle afterall she is known as The Deciever and it's her W and Mimic that makes her a tricky champion. Honeslty if Riot ever changed LeBlanc I just hope they'd leave her W just the way it is, it's just an amazing ability.

I do agree that she could use some nerfs but i think Riot themselves are having trouble as to where to nerf her. To me the problem seems to be that she can deal alot of point-click damage howerver I do think the change proposed by TheAsaisa01 could help in balancing her out.
