Well, i honestly think i'm the only player who doesn't like leveling E up first, so i don't know why i'm defending it, but the thing is, having the overlap slow only when you ult is not a bad thing. It's the only time you really need it, because, outside of it, you don't really want to do much except push your enemy out of the lane with harass, or make him last hit under the tower. i usually use W + E to set up an easy double Q on people, so i don't really care about an overlapping slow. If you listen to people who max E first (scarra, wingsofdeathx, dyrus and wickd, maybe? saying maybe because i've seen them max Q first at times as well.), the fact that you can use E twice during his ult is reason enough to level it first.

Most important of all, when saying that zed is not durable, you need to remember that his damage is off the charts. Off the top of my head, the only champ zed can't smash 1 on 1 is poppy.
