Since you're stating different values I just want to point out that it's 330, not 335, I'm sure you know this but just for clarification. Even if you compare it only to champions with movement speed of 325-340, Lux still is in the second lowest group. If this discussion would have taken place before her movement speed nerfs then I would agree with you, but as of now her movement speed is not good. I don't really think she needs more movement speed, I just don't think it qualifies as mobile. What does it matter what items she builds? Obviously her speed is going to be good if you build movement speed on her, that has nothing to do with her base movement speed. One of the biggest reasons to why you build all those movement speed items is just because of the fact that she is slow and has no mobility.

If you want to compare Ziggs then you should take into account that he can use his W to get there faster (and to close gaps, escape and jump walls) and use his ultimate a lot earlier than Lux can, due to a range difference of more than 2000. Not to mention that neither of those champions are in need of positioning themselves for a linear skillshot. I'm not necessarily talking about Ahri and Kassadin when I say mobile, anyone that has a decent speed boost is in my opinion more mobile than Lux. She has ways to prevent people from getting to her, but once again, that does not make her mobile.

In the Dominion video she also jumps over a Jarvan Cataclysm like a Riven. Everyone has to be on the move in a teamfight, not just Lux. If you ever stand still for a long amount of time as any champion, you're probably doing something wrong. Imagine having a small speed boost to dodge those skillshots, or to get away from that Fizz/Malph/Vi.

The very definition of the word mobility is: The ability to move or be moved freely and easily. By that definition every champion in the game is mobile, so if we're going to use it to define champions, we have to broaden it, but we shouldn't change the meaning of the word entirely. So a champion that classifies as this should be someone that actually has something that increases their mobility or at the very least a base movement speed above the average. Lux do not have this.
