I think it's a deliberate move on Riot's part to give him very little damage scalings. His kit gives him a huge amount of mobility, defense and crowd control, more so even than champs like and, who already have terrible damage to balance their strengths. I also have a hunch this came from testing him in top lane: because he has so much free tankiness and CC, he could easily either hold the entire lane up or guarantee a kill in ganks, so with any more damage he'd risk snowballing.
