This is contrasting evidence that he is worse when playing with Olaf.
Moreover, when Yasuo plays with Olaf on the same team, he typically receives a little less damage than when he plays alone. Getting dealt not as much damage may mean that Olaf does a decent job of covering Yasuo during team fights.
