Why is Olaf getting buffs on the PBE if he's statistically one of the best top laners?

For reference, here is his op.gg http://na.op.gg/champion/olaf/statistics/top

He's getting : +0.5 AD per level +10% AS while Vicious Strikes is active E CD reduced by 4/3/2/1/0 seconds.

As far as I know, you don't need much to make a champion broken (as an example, Morgana's winrate jumping to 60% even though her lane sustain was heavily reduced).

I think it's safe to say Olaf will be nerfed or hotfixed shortly after, why not buff champions that deserve it instead of champions that are already doing fine?

pretty skewed across all these, but if i recall, he is powerful due to how his Q interaction with comet/aery right? and with the aery nerf was he hit hard?
