(sorry if the post seems a little scattered I tried to answer everything you asked )

The W passive is a farming tool and mostly to help with early-mid game exchanges when fighting someone with a lot of armor. The tiny amount of extra magic damage really doesn't seem like much on paper, but when you're fighting someone with barely, or even sub, 1,000 hp it can honestly be a noticable amount of damage.

The biggest point needed to be understood about Miss Fortune is that she isn't meant to be a late-game carry like Corki with his true-damage passive and armor shred, she's an early to mid game carry more along the lines of Caitlyn (although she plays nowhere near like Cait.) She's supposed to make the enemy carry a burden for their team by starving them of gold and even xp.

You're supposed to be zoning and harassing the enemy like crazy thanks to the power in Double Up, her passive allowing her to engage and disengage without counter-harass, and the bonus damage/heal reduction on W. Miss Fortune can make you burn through health pots like mad and can be a pain in the rear when you're a healer support like Taric.

Q not being an auto-attack modifier is probably because of the fact that it isn't entirely an auto-attack with bonus damage like ricochet. It has a lower base AD on first hit, and even the second bounce is still less than 1 - 1 ratio. There isn't a single AA modifier that actually makes the auto weaker in the entire game. If you were to make it a modifier it would need really overbuffing into complete OP status.

I never see anyone build FM on her o.O... maybe they do it for the self-peeling power the slow gives but I don't have a clue.

As to why no Triforce is because she either has to waste a long cooldown slow, a long cooldown steroid, or just flat out waste the triforce buff on the weaker of the two Double up hits since the bonus damage doesn't carry over. (Both hits of Double Up are calculated independently.) Simply... she just has no way to properly proc it so why buy the item when you.

And finally... please never rank up your AA steroid when fighting EZ, that's part of the reason he's so strong. You can't duel Ezreal with just basic attacks since he will slow the hell out of your attack speed. You're better off chunking him with double up from behind minions while he's unable to do anything since his main source of poke is blocked by them.
