Context: The general situation when you do support XL and main DPS Childe.
Xiangling's Q skill has low cooldown and potentially 100% uptime, where Childe's E has annoyingly long cooldown and very low uptime (compared to the cooldown). You'd be able to chain 2 of XL's ult before Childe's E is even off the first natural cooldown (30s), and it doesn't help that the longer you're in blade mode, the cooldown will also be longer.

Adding more context is the way Childe-XL team works. On top of the reason stated abouve, because Childe can apply Hydro consistently in AoE during his E he is often paired with Xiangling to allow her to Vaporize her burst. In this way, Childe works more as a Hydro Aura support for Xiangling, instead of the reverse.
