As amused as you seem to be, you seemed to be unable to refute it.

However, because I can, lets reposte your point. Kennen needs to land 3 spells in 8 seconds. to get a 1 second stun. At which point, he has used all his spells so the stun is good for getting away or maybe an auto attack or two. However, if he misses with his skill shot. Or he is playing against someone who is competent to notice that they just ended up with 2 marks on them from Kennen and put a little bit of care into their positioning, OR they are a bit better than competent and see that Kennen is about to unleash his combo and pre-emptively stun or smash him instead, then the stun doesn't land.

Annie needs 4 spells cast. She doesn't even have to land them. She can sit in base and cast 4 times. Then when she comes out her next spell stuns. She can carry that stun with her all game if she wants to. The stun is longer, doesn't require a skill shot, and completely instant as none of her spells require a channel. And the stun is for a longer duration. To compare Kenny's 3 to Annie's 5 is ridiculous.

And for the record, I wasn't saying that any of these mages were better or worse, I was comparing the difficulty of play. Annie, is by far the easiest of that group. (Which is also why she has the tag "recommended")
