It's not really a problem for every champ in the game. Quite a few champs were designed with overlapping kits and vague character design themes. Because of this there's actually quite a lot of leeway with how they can be designed and sometimes compeltely reworked.

Katarina unfortunately is in the hardest role to work on (assassins), has a really simple but effective design (sweep the enemy with your ult), and her lore and theme is just "She kills people really well with lots of knives and shit." which she does completely in her kit.
