The playstyle was actually pretty substantially nerfed, the build was just nerfed even worse. AD will never reach the attack speed nor healing of the old AP Xin, and AP Xin will be even further behind. The crit and AD scaling do very little for AP Xin, so it the playstyle was heavily, even overly, nerfed.

AP Xin may have been an issue, but it wasn't extreme enough to recieve a nerf to the healing and a large nerf to the attack speed, with only a relatively useless crit and a tiny AD ratio added in horrible compensation. Healer Xin was fun, and Healer Xin is getting nerfed extensively. AP Xin was fun and AP Xin got nerfed even worse - but the playstyle still got huge nerfs as well.
