This difference could indicate that Ziggs does not provide protection for him to dish out more damage or that his presence on the team also helps increase the game's duration.

This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing synergisticly with Ziggs.
Moreover, when Varus plays with Ziggs on the same side, he often takes a little more damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt more damage may mean that Ziggs does a poor job of covering Varus in team fights.
