I would have to agree with you,  If you are going to make a raise before the flop, you need it to be convincing, but saying that A/Q off suit is a dangerous hand to play, So I would rather Limp than raise. Calling a bet after the flop is Mandatory as you were holding the Nut Flush Draw, but to push all-in on the River seemed a little suspicious, which is probably why the Villain called.
If you had the Flush You would probably size your bet accordingly and try to make it look like you were trying to get value, maybe a pot sized bet would have done the job, but you certainly wouldn't have busted out.
Kudos to the Villain though, I certainly would not have called in his position with a pocket pair and two over cards out there, but he obviously smelled something fishy and called correctly, As for pushing All-in before the flop, It would be bottom of my calling range but not unheard of.
In one game I remember I had limped from UTG with Pocket 8s  and facing an All-in Raise from the Player UTG+1 and having two callers the pot became very tempting and my decision to call was because UTG+1 was the 1st to go all-in and he would probably be pushing with an Ace hand and the 2 callers were obviously holding something similar, So I decided to come along and spiked an 8 on the flop, Game over and I took all 3 of them out.
