" I've seen people maxing Q first in some toplane match-ups but It's not a common occurence for me."

All the statistics I've seen indicate that most of the midlane Yasuos max Q first. They also win less than people who max E first.

I don't know if it's sometimes situationally appropriate to do so, though from what I've seen high-level Yasuo players saying, there's almost never a reason to. Either way, the fact is that Riot may well be balancing around a winrate based on people maxing the wrong ability, which seems bad from a game health point of view.
