Burst or Sustain, you have to choose. You can't have a durable champ with a strong burst in lane, that's not manageable at all because of how you are forced to stay in the vicinity of the champ.

A bursty champ with sustain like Rengar just needs to burst you once, retreat and regain HP, then re-burst you again. If you are a burst champ, you just lost the trade because he nullified some of your burst. If you are a DPS champ you just lost the trade because even if you sustain some of the damage you took against him, you didn't deal enough to make it stick since you had a very small window to damage him before he retreated.
