A Pyke lane getting a double can be a whole Zeal item of gold difference
Pyke getting a double kill with his ult with an ally getting an assist grants a total of 1800 gold to his lane. That means the lane just needs to find 600 gold between minions and turret platings - that is, 2 waves and 2 platings, a very reasonable amount to take off of a double bot, to be able to buy an entire zeal item with the gold they've just gotten.
Imagine if every time you died in lane your laner got a whole item in exchange. "Oh, I died to Jax, now he gets a free Shojin".
Yeah, kinda stupid. It's still stupid when it's Pyke even if the gold is split between 2 people. Can we reduce the gold generation from his ult and buff him elsewhere if we really must?
