So what's the point of having the lock in button? It's to let your team know that's the champion you're going to be playing and to be able to start a game early if everyone is ready (or go to the next round of picking in draft), saving time.
What are the cons of the lock in button? Trolls can force teams to pick around them even if others picked/called before them. You can accidentally lock in a champion. You can lock in something you thought you needed but actually didn't. And I'm sure there are many other situations made worse by a lock in button.
So, how do we get rid of the cons while preserving the benefits? Make locking in reversible, make it a ready button. Yes, it takes away the finality which a few people might like but overall this change will result in less trolling, less accidents in champ select and less toxicity.
