First, about the Black Cleaver. I reconsidered it and I figure that the extra shred of armor can be worth it, not to mention that fact that it provides more CDR which is necessary. Doing the math, I would reduce a 100 armor target to about 66 armor with BC and Kayle passive at 5 hits. And, if I lose stacks on my target then getting shred stacks on my target can be quicker with those two combined, so I take back what I said about BC. I can forfeit Stark's (which allows me IE and PD) for only a loss of 5% CDR which still allows Kayle 35% CDR which will maintain E since my final build would consist of: Ionian | BotRK | Zephyr | The Black Cleaver | Infinity Edge | Phantom Dancer.

I gain 35% CDR, a health shred, a ton of AS, AD scaling (crit chance and damage) and tenacity for my ultimate.

Now, as to BotRK, yeah, if the top laner isn't a tanky dps, BotRK would be weaker. However, at my elo anyways, I always see bulky fighters top with hard gap closers or some kind of method of quickly closing distance. Not to mention most junglers come with a gap-closer of some kind. Therefore, the extra slow built into Cutlass allows you to get away from ganks and BotRK allows me to quickly get a burst heal on myself which can turn the tide of a duel. ADC champs who rush BotRK may be making a mistake. But, Kayle isn't an ADC for lack of being fully ranged so that argument doesn't apply to her. So, I would highly disagree about the BotRK argument.
