Can we have a way to remove or prevent Grievous Wounds?

Currently it just feels like it's way too easy to cut the efficacy of a heal support (like Soraka) in half. Maybe add it to the active of Mikael's or a max-charged Athene's healing. It shouldn't be something that's always available or is necessarily easy to achieve. But I want grievous wounds to be more interactive than "wait for the debuff duration to be over". Another idea could be to have grievous wounds be cured if the champion is healed by 8% or more of its max hp in a single effect (after reduction, so it would have to be something like a Soraka ultimate). Maybe even have only the damage dealt by a grievous wounds effect have reduced healing, rather than retroactively making wounds grievous. I feel like that would be a quality of life change that would make grievous wounds still feel impactful, but not like you're outright shutting down a member of the enemy team.

The point of grievous wound is that you have to give up something in order to get it:

For ADCs: item 3123 is not a helpful early game item even then item 3033 makes you lose 10% damage output since nearly all champs have higher health than you

For Mages: item 3165 is no longer being built by a lot of people like it was before you have to go out of your build to build it

For Tanks: item 3076 isn't actually that bad of an item to get early and not complete. That one slightly annoys me, but at the very least the grievous only applies if they attack you and not if you attack them.

Grievous Wounds used to get removed by Raka ult, but this was removed in the middle of season 6 when she was broken and GW only applied on self heals.

I sometimes wish that change would be reverted, but there are cases where this is wrong.
