When they did the math they said she basically regens 36 hp less per minute now (3 hp/5 sec x 60 secs = 36 hp).

But by buffing the shield by 20 you just made her stronger since the shield even at level 1 with no CDR is 10 secs. And since the shield CD starts on-cast, that's 6 shields per minute.

20 hp/shield x 10 shields/min = 200 hp/min

Throw in some CDR masteries or runes and that number is bigger.

And with a stronger shield early game, it makes it harder to damage her actual health bar.
