He isnt one of the most popular champions because of "flashy plays". Those are actually a non-factor. Lee Sin is the most popular champion because he is cheap. Very easy, and very powerful. Additionally, he has tools for everything. The most overloaded character. Although, now he lacks an attack speed slow (hallelujah).

And I have to disagree that they are healthy. A wardjump-ult combo can often be done without chance of retaliation, and kicks the target 1200 units away. Which is insane. It can often kill a person just because they didnt have 100% of the map covered in wards. Ward jumps by themselves are not a problem. Wardjumps on a character with another dash and 1200 range knockback is.

Additionally its a misconception that his abilities fall off. They have both very high base damage, and very high scaling (except for E, which only has average scaling and base damage). In fact, his Q is the highest damage basic spell in the game, with the exception of a fully channeled panth E. The problem is, he has to build tanky, because, as his most powerful ability is kicking the enemy into his team, he cant get the chance of dealing a lot of damage. Buffing his late-game scaling wont do anything.

In reality, there is no good way of nerfing or rebalancing Lee to a good state. You would need a hard rework, or to remove so much from him that he becomes an uninteresting character. Additionally, he certainly does not need 2 dashes.
