Losing an incursion run 101 (a "humorous" story and a node question)

I wanted to practise Incursions a bit today, so I tried the method with boosted Hercules, just to have fun, because I kinda hate Incursions and wanted to give it one more go.
Not too long later I was struck with this boss:
Now, I know the mistake is on my side. Yea, Herc cheese is a bad thing and I only deserve to have my run ruined. Besides, any skilled player would have nailed a solo easily. Don't worry, I hear you saying that and some part of me agrees. No need to fight over this.
However, a question that came to my mind is, "Why put Can't stop won't stop in the node pool in the first place?" I mean there aren't any hacks that would make you unstoppable and while its availability has increased over the past couple years, I still don't think you would find a champion with unstoppable on many teams. I feel like adding this node makes little sense. It just puts more pressure on picking champs into a already reduced team. Thank god for champ swap I guess...
Yea so anyway just wanted to share this story. Take it with a pinch of salt, I am a bit annoyed that the game just won't let me have fun, but that's RNG and it's completely fair.

There are definitely several terrible node combos that I've seen made far worse by their corresponding boss. But then again, I've also had like three major nodes all get cancelled out by another node, or the Tyranny node on a Hero boss letting me just spam heavies. It is what it is.
