You just ignored what i brought up like everything you said was new O_O
I'm trying to say that it is false that she has no AOE, and she has a movespeed steroid. Also her passive stacks spears in a person for infinite amounts of damage, it can be used for last hitting and execution. If she has no %HP steroid so what? She can peel for herself and make most top laners not even viable of a choice to even begin with trying to AA her, she just has to orb walk away with ease.
A movespeed steroid is not a damage steroid, and please, I know it seems like an active spell, but try to think of Rend as an on-hit damage steroid rather than an active spell. For every autoattack, Kallista gets 32+30% Bonus AD extra damage. The fact that it is linked to her slow and can only be popped once is actually a disadvantage to her, since she needs to judge exactly when she needs the extra damage and once she's used it in a teamfight its essentially gone.
So yes, she has an AOE, but she has no way to damage multiple targets at once, two of her spells are somewhat situational in a way that nobody else's are (teammate must be nearby/participating) and her steroid is Rend, which we can easily compare to the steroids of other carry champions.
Now, what if we could compare a similar, immobile champion to Kallista? We could maybe see what she gives up for that powerful mobility.
Varus has a very similar playstyle, minus the dashing, to Kallista. He's got a mark/stack steroid in Blighted Quiver, a hard CC ult, a slow with hail of arrows and a long range line skillshot in Piercing Arrow.
What does Varus have for damage and ratios on all his spells compared to Kallista?
Between Q, E, and R Varus has 790+60% Bonus AD damage+160% Total AD damage. Disregarding any AP ratios he has (we're playing him as an ad carry after all) and using his kit exactly like we use Kallista's.
Kallista has 310+60% Bonus AD Damage+100% Total AD Damage. That is her spear plus the "base damage" from one stack of Rend. She also gets the situational but extremely powerful 20% max HP spike from soul marked if her soulbound autos the same target as her.
Now, as for Steroids. Kallista has her stacks of rend (32+30% AD physical damage)
Varus has his passive (20% atkspd on minion kill, 40% on champ kill or assist) and his blighted quiver (26+5% max HP as magic damage per stack).
So Varus has a slight edge on steroids, a significant edge on damage, and what else does he get?
-Higher attack range by 25 and higher movespeed by 5. Small but the stats that carries most care about.
-AOE damage, and loads of it. Q, E, and R all have the potential to hit multiple targets, further increasing the damage Varus is able to output compared to Kallista
-Grievous Wounds
Kallista gets vision and mobility.
So, what is the trade off?
Mobility and free vision for damage and waveclear.
in the past.
release.
KEEP ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN!
Capped DPS due to her jump on her passive. Also no "real" ultimate
No "real" ultimate and struggles in 1v1s post-6 (if not fed). Has a lot of map pressure, however.
Squishy, high skill cap. Using his mobility spell either mispositions his damage dealing soldiers OR makes him vulnerable to a gank or ambush
Needs to snowball to build damage and get away with it, or needs insane mechanics to pull off full squish. But yeah, this guy kinda sucks to deal with.
are all big offenders and they're all at least 2 years old.
btw Kalista's only source of damage is AAs so
Vayne pays for it my having more true damage than Irelia even without 
pays for her movement by needing to hit q or else you just got put on a 20+ second CD
meanwhile 
gets 3 free, massive range/damage jumps every assist or kill
