While that maybe true, think of what's the MOST effective one.

For Riven, as the scaling and base damage of her Q goes up, it's most effective maxing Q first.

For Syndra, it lets her farm better than W or E can, as it comes up much faster than the two of them. You also gain more pressure and dps with Q than any other ability, since an unranked Q isn't gonna scare anyone until late game or mid game if you are fed.
