Well, aside from the silence, kassadin has also another card, he can choose when to trade, he can force trades cooldown wise.

Champions you named (Swain, Kayle, Lulu, Sion) have no instant gap closers. They have the ability to not get raped by him post-6, zone him to some point but still aren't counters.

Why would short ranged AP mages with low roaming potential and/or lack of instant gapclosers counter him anyway.

How can they escape a gank if they will keep denying kassadin under tower.?

How will they keep the harass if they use mana?

How will they stop kassadin from jumping 2 wards, ganking bot from nowhere, winning the lane for his adc and getting a dragon in the way? Taking his mid turret and some extra farm?

How can they match his presence if he gets back? "Outscaling" him?
