Here's the thing, though. None of a champion's abilities can be taken in a vacuum. Thinking "but if I get zero kills as the adc, i don't have a passive!". Abilities aren't very hepful as discrete measurements of power. Don't think "I don't have a passive" think "I'm not getting bonus gold", because that is the *actual effect* of not getting any kills.

And again, seen in this light, the simple connection of no kills -> not enough gold ends up feeling like a breathtakingly obvious one. This problem is slightly exacerbated on Draven due to his passive depending on it, but his kit is so strong that even without a passive, his overall power outstrips that of many similar champions anyway.
