You're right that he can push easily because of his Q. (Which is why I prefer Viktor's laser :P).

His passive is barely noticeable in the laning phase. I find that armor on him is similar to health on Lux; if you get into a situation where you need to make use of it, chances are that bonus won't save you. It's not that his passive doesn't benefit him. Heck, additional attack speed or AD would benefit him, or any champion for that matter. The problem I think is that it doesn't go well with him as a champion who's a great poker and who shouldn't be getting caught.
