You can add tools that help the SMN keep their pet alive if you want. You can do anything.
You are advocating for a complete re-design of the class after launch. That simply won't happen for a wide range of reasons, mainly that people have been playing the existing class and have existing gear tuned to the existing class. You cannot wipe out every summoner's progress in order to replace the class with something else. Not to mention the time and resources necessary for that kind of re-design would destroy the 'new minor version every 3 months' plan they are trying to hold to.

It is simply not feasible.
