It's not one ability that is two ults it's one ability with two uses. Capture an enemy and go basically nowhere (Unlike Skarner's ult which is a rather pivotal point of capturing an enemy). Or escort an ally a fair distance which is unique to the game. Yes Kalista doesn't take anyone anywhere per-se. She brings them to her and they decide where to go. When Tahm Kench swallows you he makes the call and you can just leave at some point.

On that note if you do want to take an ally into the heart of the enemy Kalista's ult is better as well as it doesn't require you running at someone and even if Kalista was attacked it doesn't stop her ally from appearing.

Tahm Kench's devour is no replacement for either ults and functions on a useful but still much weaker level.
