While you are correct to a degree, you also have to remember that attack speed increases attack animation, so it will also make it easier to quickly throw then move towards a catch point for your axes. As well, if you do happen to lose all your axes, having strong basic attacks will help keep your damage output steady.

You really could just build Draven to be what is essentially an AD caster (That's actually an idea I want to try out now) with a lot of raw attack damage, but I do find Phantom Dancer to be an item you just can't go without.
