Why would Araki make it look different if it didn’t do anything special?

He likes things that look cool.

Why would he make it the focus of the finale?

King Crimson was too strong to be beat in any other way.

Why hasn’t anyone after its introduction pierced their stand making it a requiem?

It's in the turtle and Giorno didn't just hand it off to any random jackass that might want unlimited power?

The central theme to Part 5 is fate and both Requiems have a lot to do with it so I believe they were planned from the start He seriously didn't, I can tell you that right now. Araki doesn't plan that far ahead by and large. That just isn't how he works.

Also, Pucci got Whitesnake from an arrow with the same design. Didn't turn him into a Requiem or create Made in Heaven. Arrows are just arrows all made from the same material.
