I can see both sides of the argument (red on Ashe is kinda redundant), but I'll put my own thoughts here.
At the very least, this change may encourage hit-and-run operations, and you could go deeps into enemy territory. It provides less griefing opportunities, and let's face it, with the current red buff, in the middle of a team fight, I steal reds from people if I can, and this easily turns into a double or even a triple kill. It severely punishes the other team for bad position of one guy. One has to wonder what the future of Frozen Mallet and Ashe would be though, if the red being used as a perma-slow is seen as less net fun for everyone than a haste.
