"all of his damage can be avoided or stopped, and is mainly autoattack-based"

That's... literally a contradiction in terms. What? I don't understand what you're even trying to say... I mean, you can stop autoattacks if you're Jax with E up, or with a few other specific things like Aegis Protection or Riposte, or blinds, but that's not a generally available solution to the majority of champions. Once an AA animation has started, even if you Flash out of range it will complete and you will take damage, which is totally the opposite of what you said. :\ Aside from that, there's things like "build resists/health" or "cc them before they start doing damage", but that's true against any champion. Yasuo's not an exception there - indeed, the former of those works less well against him than many others.

Also, while YPN's... bitterness, for lack of a better term, may cloud his judgement, it is at the very least understandable as far as I can see it. Yasuo for a while was the pick or ban champion, and in a uniquely obnoxious way due to his projectile block and early hyperscaling - other examples tended to just have overtuned numbers. But many other old "must-bans" have been nerfed to the point where they're no longer popular, long before Yasuo, and have rotted there in obscurity ever since. I contend that Yasuo has a somewhat broken kit so his "Olafing" is actually for the best, but regardless - it smacks at least a little of unfairness when Riot/others go complaining about how Yasuo needs buffs/tweaks because he's not good any more, whereas many other picks who are either unpopular or have low winrates ("unviable champs", according to some) go ignored. No?
