I think that they gated too much power through one single ability (the spear, again). It both deals a considerable amount of damage and it's the only one capable of "reliably" applying the prey mark on an acceptable low CD.

I understand they don't want to change the feeling of Nidalee, so they don't want to touch her other human forms... On the other hand, throwing spears in low-mid range is possible and might more rewarding depending on the situation.
