I would always max as an ADC due to how it corresponds to  purpose: autoattacking. However, if I was building, then I would max the other abilites.

Think about what you are doing when you max his abilites. You are increasing the magic damage with his. That said, you are increasing dependance on his abilities. By increasing his every rank, you are also making options that use --such as  and on-hit effects--favorable. All of this coupled with a low base range means that intends to duel someone who enters close quarters: a tank.

While there are encourters with support/tanks in the bot lane, their purpose is to distract you so that the enemy ADC can maul your face in. This is why I wouldn't ever max  for the bot lane, I don't want to be in a tank's face in the first place.
