Lowering his Q's CD early on would make it where you can more often tango with champs that have high hp (along with the tons of armor that is usually built) with him, Raknut. It would become like Kha'Zix Q, only better in many ways. It resets your AA, you lifesteal off of the bonus damage proc, and it adds a bleed effect which will keep getting refreshed until they get away from you. In other words, like how it is with Darius, people would really want to stay out of your melee range or they'll most probably get out-traded. Same as Darius passive, Teemo E, Cassiopeia W...it doesn't really matter if all you're doing is refreshing the number of ticks, you just really want to keep applying it as much as you can. If it were shifted more over to a dps ability (which is what that would be), then it would become much more reasonable to get less damage items on Talon, and he'd be quite toxic to play against unless his numbers were gutted.
