This is a discussion not of a hero's strength, but of gameplay, I know that Phoenix can be really oppressive throughout whole game, don't downvote just because!!!
Straight to the point: Phoenix as a hero is designed in a way that it doesn't (need to) use almost any items in Dota, which limits it's gameplay.
This thought came to me when I saw support Phoenixes rushing refresher as first item at TI.
While Supernova (and Sunray to an extend) are really good when they are good, I feel like the hero's kit is too pigeonholed:
Which leaves us with aura items.

This is the end of the problem as I see and I would like to encourage you to post your thoughts on that, maybe crackpot solutions or criticism to the point itself.

Now to my idea: So why not lean into auras and make Fire Spirits interact with auras in a similar way Pango's Swashbuckle interacts with attack-procs items:
Should it be implemented via Shard, Aghs or just in its base kit with some number changes to accommodate for increased potential is up to Valve.
But I think it will make Phoenix builds and gameplay as a whole much more interesting and engaging.
