10 more damage per rank is a big deal, especially when the only other thing either ability gains per rank is -1 second to the cooldown (which is 1 second lower for Q than E for a given rank). Blinding Assault also has your better scaling, so the total damage dealt is going to massive much quicker as your first item (often a BT for me so far), is put together. It's also puts your best damage on an ability that isn't also doubling as your main escape (something that should generally be held onto in teamfights until needed).
