Really the only time I would consider taking this is when a new ADC comes out, and that is because I play a relic-shield support. I remember when xayah and rakan came out, so many people wanted to play xayah, but they sucked at ADC to the point where I had to take smite to get my relic shield procs.

However, in that scenario, it falls of a lot later, because the execute potential from FoTM (and a bit on targon's brace) is huge, to the point where the instakill is only useful if I need to kill two at once, and I don't care about doing 5% more damage because I can execute anyways. It is also not a good rune if the only use I can think for it it is to compensate for less practiced teammates, or to CS while fighting the opponent.

I do agree with you that it is good to have a rune dedicated to minion control (and inspiration is difinitely the right tree for it), but I don't think a free banner would be quite the same. For one, if it is an extra item that only grants an active, that means you have to have an empty slot for it or not have acess to it. It also means you could stock up on them and use multiple at once, which would disintigrate towers.
