Is it really worth adding that amount of MS for Hecarim to surpass Jhin in max AD when you consider that Hecarim's max MS falls short of what is required by more than half what he needs?

Rammus's max MS from the MS page which (while slightly different that it actually is because it hasn't been updated since before the change to AP items) is about 46664... (I did the math myself off the post - soft cap formula it had at the end because the number the writer gave was an order of magnitude off from just estimating what it should be, and my math also returned a different value than just shifting the decimal on the author's math so i have no clue how accurate any of the other math is. But anyhow that's beside the point...) Since Hecarim's max MS < Rammus's max MS, Hecarim's max MS is (assuming the rest of the MS math is correct) < 46664 < 10030/2. Even if Hecarim swapped out an item for a chilling smite to steal a Rammus's MS (which i'm surprised the max doesn't account for the other team doing the same and having a chilling smite), he would be nowhere near the required 10030 bonus MS to get that AD.

Now, keeping the required MS there to calculate as a mental exercise or to make sure it get's recalculated in case it is one day possible is fine. (which would probably require a jhin rework or a heavy change to the way soft caps work on MS (or maybe a soft-cap removal in URF, that might be hilariously fun)) But perhaps there should be a little disclaimer that explains that the required MS in unachievable.

Also someone fix the math on max MS, I lack the motivation to do it right now
