Yasuo's Windwall Blocks Incoming Soraka HP Charge

Hey, Did you know that, Yasuo's wall blocks Soraka's incoming HP charge from Starcall even if it hits him before his windwall went up.

For Example.

Soraka cast Starcall on a Yasuo who doesn't have his shield up. It hits him. He puts up his Windwall up a second after Starcall hits him in and attempt to ward off dmg. (Or whatever reason he would) The incoming charge (aka the HP charge coming from him to Soraka) hits the wall and then is negated.

I have noticed the following situations play out.

I. It takes his HP away due to Starcalls damage, hits wall, is negated, then is refunded back to Yasuo. II. It takes his HP away due to Starcalls damages, hits wall, and is negated and no refund is given back to Yasuo.

Is this suppose to happen? I feel like it's not suppose to play out like that, and instead, be refunded back to her regardless, since; I. It's not a Projectile in any fashion. II. It's originating from Caster.

Steps to reproduce. Selected Champion "Soraka" Game Launch Engage Yasuo making sure to de-proc his shield with your magically enchanted banana. Cast Starcall on him (Make sure to hit.) Have him cast Windwall immediately after you cast Starcall. Watch what happens. ???? Do not Profit. :'(

I get why it gets blocked, but I don't feel like it's exactly fair.

Why should raka get punished for landing her (slow ass) skillshot when Yasuo could have easily used windwall in the first place to avoid it all together.

That's so weird.

It's logical, the hp flying back is a particle of some sort. It can be blocked

To me it is not logical, Direct spells that originate from Caster are considered projectiles from what I understand. The particle or even for the sake of your statement "projectile" originated from Yasuo.

His Windwalls states; ACTIVE: Yasuo creates a gust of wind that travels forward to form a wall in front of him. The wall slowly drifts forward over 3.75 seconds, blocking all enemy projectiles with the exception of turret attacks.

Enemies projectiles..... The spell initially connected before Windwall went up, so in a data sense, it registered the Windwall as non-successful. The "projectile" is Yasuo's own HP, therefore should not/could not be considered as a being able to be fairly blocked or even meant to be blocked.

Thoughts?

i'm sure this can include Vlad's Q. Yas windwalls, Vlad uses Q, damage dealt but the healing returned is blocked. So weird:/
