You're understanding the passive wrong. At level 16, it doesn't matter how much AP he has - the passive provides 32 AP at a time. Also, you can't talk about only one ability with his passive, as the ability that triggers it won't get any bonus from the passive. For example, if he casts Q then E then W: Q gets no bonus but triggers the passive once; E gets one stack of passive bonus then adds another; then W gets the bonus from two stacks of his passive then adds a third stack (not that a third stack will matter since not even his Q will be off cooldown yet).

Also, you missed the part where the ult-copies only have 10% of Josiah's stats. If he has 300 AD, then the copies each have 30 AD. Yes, they'll have Infinity Edge's passive on them as well, but only 10% of Josiah's crit chance (so if he has 40% crit chance, the clones only have 4%). Honestly, I'm a little worried that those are currently too weak.
