"-Aatrox is, I think, designed as a melee ADC, therefore building him glasscanon makes sense, contrary to Jarvan."

You're ignoring the fact that melee ADCs aren't particularly viable at all. The two closest things we have to truly viable melee ADCs are Jax and Riven and it's mostly because they get lots of benefits from building damage stats, they even get defensive stats based on the damage they build. Simply because Riot *wants* him to be able to build 100% squishy, doesn't mean it'll work out any better than Fiora.

"- The more Lifesteal you have, the more Hydra becomes powerful. Your argument makes no sense. And as a healh-based champion who autoattacks like a Yi on steroids, it's quite obvious that building shittons of lifesteal will be useful. Hydra also makes you damage AoE, increasing your teamfight potential by a very large amount. And he is the only "ranged" champion who can use hydra's passive at a distance with every single autoattack, unlike GP or Kayle."

Stacking lifesteal doesn't fulfill a carry's role, stacking damage stats does. You don't itemize to lifesteal, you itemize to kill; building some lifesteal allows your damage to benefit your survival. I'm not the only person who thinks Hydra is garbage, infact, I'm one of many. Here's an article on why Hydra sucks: http://www.reignofgaming.net/blogs/a-different-view/oldmaneyebrows/24415-ravenous-hydra-vs-bloodthirster-with-tiamat-bonus

"- Tenacity is NEVER wasted, even on glasscanons. There are plenty of CCs in this game, and I can totally see the use of escaping a Lux binding earlier than the enemy team expected you to. "

Bullshit. If a squishy explodes in 1 second, then reducing a 2 second CC to 1.4 seconds isn't going to make a difference.
