Should Red and Blue buff monsters be replaced with a Rift Herald type come late game?

Crazy idea, but I feel like those monsters become less useful as the game progresses (I could be entirely wrong about that). Baron replaces RH, and Elder replaces regular dragons, so what if there were more team based objectives in the jungle? If this is a dumb idea, I'd like to know why since it seems like something Riot would do.

I think it would be cool if they replaced the other camps with something instead.

You are almost entirely wrong about them being less useful.

At some point in the game (time wise), Red buff gives insane out of combat regen, similar to Warmogs. It's slow and true damage keep it useful as well.

Blue buff gives 10% CDR, a very useful stat, and mana regen, very useful for any mage wanting to spam. It's a bit less useful if you capped CDR, which isn't too hard, and Morello's/RoA/Seraphs takes care of the mana problems of most mages fairly well, so it's not quite as useful.

It's still amazing for anyone with less than 40% CDR and for a Ziggs or Varus who wants to spam. Especially if it's a no-tear Varus.
