Problem with Mida/Uriels is, you're screwed if an antiope/last hope user gets in range. Uriel's can compete for sure, but it shines at mid- to long-range. And if you're doing lane control, why are you using a Mida and an Uriel's together? Either one does fine on its own.

I’ve heard that’s a good one! But I’ve strayed from that and started using pulses and smgs, which have been destroying the mida users at times. So there are definitely alternates to these “expert claims”
