D&D 5E "Whenever you roll initiative" capstones: idea for replacing them

[Xeviat]

I'd like to see these capstones get altered too. They're minor things. They only come up when you have to push yourself seriously hard in a single encounter, or if you aren't getting adequate short rests. If a group is pacing themselves, these abilities will never show up.

The Warlock's capstone is far better; a daily fast refresh. That's more likely to come up.

It looks like a pretty solid house rule, as far as things go. It might technically end up being a minor nerf, if you would normally re-roll initiative after defeating the dragon and the big bad gives their monologue, but you make up for it with clear consistency instead of trying to nail down the exact in-game reality which corresponds to rolling initiative.
