Yes, it's true that her damage is good if you're able to proc her passive on every ability. But outside of laning phase and a couple of 1v1 that's not going to happen. She's a very squishy long range champion without mobility so unless you're up against a team full of melee champions without gap closers you're not going to stay in auto attack range. And since she has ridiculous cooldowns on every basic ability she's not going to be able to use this damage as often as most other mages.

One could also argue that if you're weaving in two auto attacks on top of her long cast times it no longer qualifies as burst damage. If she does that you have to take into account what other champions can do during that time. There are plenty of champions with such low cooldowns that they can use an extra ability during that time, such as Karma, Ziggs and Xerath and thus out damages Lux during these conditions.
