Kalista's auto-attacks allow her to leap out of Jarvan's ult

So, Jarvan's ult is "impassable terrain". Ok, Riot lets people flash out of it. But why let Kalista's auto-attack hop pass over the wall?

It happened every time I tried it in the ARAM game I just played.

Her passive specifically states it can hop small walls.

So, J4's wall is impassable terrain, meaning you can't walk through it. However, you can dash over it (if the ability allows), flash over it, and so on. Kalista can actually hop over small walls with her passive if she times it right, so she can hop out of J4's ult as well.

Lots of champs can just hop out of it, which is why people say J4 is a bit weak (he's really not).

... Imagine a J4 and Poppy together though. J4 ults around the Poppy, and then Poppy uses W in the middle of the ring -- no one gets out today!

I understand that "wall" and "impassable terrain" have specific meanings for riot, but you're all missing my question. What's the point of an ult that can be completely ignored by one champ? She doesn't even need to wait on a dash ability to cooldown, she just keeps doing what she always does - not caring that Jarvan's ult even happened.
