Did ever Riot ever explain why Fiora has an aoe heal for an ult
Or is it like "because xd we know what we're doing"

Yes, actually, they did. It's meant to represent the cheers and feel of victory after a duel.
reworked fiora was ment to have a better role in team fight other than provideing raw damage and this is what they added to do that buy putting an aoe heal for the team.
The %maxhealth true damage is the bigger problem... Why even? It seems like a poke mechanic but instead its her main fucking damage source. Could have easily made it magic damage and AP scaling so it can be poke and a speed boost when chasing, and make AP Fiora a kind-of-thing so there's more diversity as they apparently want, but instead they made it a fuckton of %maxhealth true damage scaling in AD for some reason.
To help her fulfill her end game fantasy of being a support. /s
The only explanation I remember is they wanted Fiora's team to care about the results of the "duel", but didn't feel like giving a random stat boost was the way to go about it.
