Seems like you missed my point, ofc some/most supports would buy Crusible, but its not a core support item, since there is no such thing as a "core support item", exept maybe sightstone. Only asking the freedom to NOT get/keep sightstone when you need slots.

CV, what, whyy, exhaust saves lives when ganked(usualy either lanegank or after enemy has pinked), or when going 2v2, and ofc exhaust scales to lategame REALY well,  just no. CV can help, but exhaust WILL help, there is a huge difference. Well anyway, not the issue. You run that CV, you can see me smiling at you from the platform :)

Point is, why do supports have to sacrifise a slot for 3 wards and some hp?

As stated earlier, would only affect hyperlategame, place where high elo games rarely end up.
