Marksman and bruisers changing lanes?

So much like other ADC/ marksman mains, ill admit that i have had multiple complaints with bruisers "taking over the bot lane"

I have felt the underwhelming preformance of marksman after the changes to crit, and felt the overall issues with marksman over the years of playing the position and other's. But instead of complaining on the forums or raging in game, i had a thought.

What if marksman and supports or even just marksman started going top? In the past top lane players complain about top being an "island" and they dont feel that they impact the game uless they TP gank or give up CS to roam mid/ help jungle, so why dont marksman and bruisers embrace the new changes and swap locations on the map?

I have played in G1 and even with most plat ranked players, and just from how thoes players play the game, i still dont see rift being fought over, os OBJS are still located mostly bot side, and most ADC's dont want to fight for dragon because they lose CS and with the added benifit of a jungler getting dragon and posibly 2 kills with every gank bottom, it enforces even more for top to just be left alone So i feel due to these factors that both toplane and marksman players could benifit from the two swaping sides, marksman are left alone to farm with a reduced fear of constantly being ganked due to a lack of objectives untill late game with barrron where they will be better equipt to deal with situations and will put more preasure on baron fights, and toplane gets to be more engaged with the flow of the game and wont be required to take TP in every game. I know there are more issues with the marksman roll but this was just an idea i had

What do you all think?

it would make more sense to throw adcs in mid lane if they kept the support, just for the double objective and roaming. the biggest hinderance to that is the bot tower having lower resist stats and the fact that the other lane will just be 2v1ing your solo bot laner
