This is basically why people build him hybrid. You get most of the advantages of AP Ezreal, but maintain the ability to kill off minion waves with regular autoattacks. What you lose is the big "eff you" from a Lichbane-powered Mystic Shot, but you still have a nice ult and good scaling on his normal abilities.

I personally wouldn't mind it if they allowed W to hit minions, because line-nukes that do that already exist. Honestly, Essence Flux isn't all that different than Lulu's Glitterlance, when you really get down to it.
