Shaco box change, added delay?

I'd actually like his W to have a delay on pop. Gives the skill innate counter-play, rather than having the no-fun red trinket instantly remove its relevance. The current pop range is 300, and the attack range is 300. As soon as an enemy gets in attack range, they are feared out. Pretty garbage since the enemy has to voluntarily walk back in.

This change would be.. They enter the 300 pop range, then half a second later it springs. (Even have the final line of pop goes the weasel play).

This way, an enemy enters the 300 range, hears music and backs out and taking 0 damage and successfully disarming the box However, if they enter and don't pay attention/get baited deeper/coordinated CC they take more than the usual 1-2 hits, because they are likely to be closer to the box.

Thematically it makes sense, since it is a Jack in the Box. Balance wise it makes sense, since the skill now has some counter play by itself (Similar to Jhin) It also adds to his theme of mind games, because you can hear the music, but don't necessarily know which way to move. Plus we all get to hear some nice music :)
