High chance the rotor has dramatically slowed if the eject is necessary

You are not thinking of crashes. The rotor won't have any time to slow down if the helicopter is about to crash into a building or the ground for reason unrelated to engine (or similar components) failure

What we really need is a seat that ejects you directly into the ground

Instead of ejecting the pilot away from the helicopter, why not design the helicopter to eject away from the pilot?

The designers of the Tu-22 would like a word.

Yeah, I know but in this probably fictional scenario something has gone so bad that it's impossible to autorotate.
Autorotation also only works well at higher altitudes.
