How to pidgeonhole jungle items to junglers
Add a unique passive to machete that grants 300 bonus gold upon killing 10 or 15 camps. Then increase the cost of jungle enchantments by 300 gold.

Actually not a bad idea.
'Diversity in Summoner Spells' is a load of bullshit until other spells are game-changing enough to take over Flash.
There's nothing wrong with people in lane taking Smite.
It's a good thing.
They don't exactly want to pidgeonhole it like that. Their issue with smite toplane was that it was proving to be better than other summoner spells and was hurting diversity. Smite in lane is fine as long as it's not overbearing and hurting diversity, and pidgeonholing it out of lane doesn't do anyone any favors.
Ten might be a little much, how about six for junglers to upgrade it after their first clear?
Or maybe you can upgrade the machete just fine, but the special smite can't be used until you've killed 10 camps total and then unlocks kind of like

There is nothing wrong with a laner using smite. They have to give up a summoner that would be more useful early for one that is more useful later.
What about junglers that don't finish the item (rengar, fiddle). It would just be free 300 gold for them.
And what exactly is wrong with laner using smite?
I don't have a problem with jungle using tp or ignite either.
uh lol
