Yes, I've done the maths and it's a buff, but not so noticeable. It's a damage increase, in all levels. At level 9, for example (when Q should be maxed), its total damage is 117 (+ 156% AD). It's 27 additional base damage, and at level 18 it increases to 54. Considering these 4% less AD scaling should never be higher than the base damage increase, it's a buff.

Also, Meddler commented about it saying it's with the purpose of allowing Illaoi to build more defensively without losing much damage.
