Champion Rework weakening player loyalty ?

Recently there are lots of champion reworks. Although reworks are progressive, some of them seem somewhat too radical to me ( eg. graves ). Lots of these champs are main of different people. Players main different champs because they like their play style and enjoy winning games and making plays with them.Players have good memories of these champs and these games, and are proud of these experience. When the champion is rework , these experience that players are proud of suddenly become meaningless. And if changes are happening too often and too radical, player might start to feel unfamiliar with the game and lose their loyalty. So I think if a champion is going to be reworked, players' feeling and experience with the champ should be taken into account too.

In my opinion , a larger item pool and more game modes should be prioritized over champion rework because it gives us more different gaming experience with any champs.
