Why not just make Kindred's passive like Kayn's but at the start of a match?

So instead of the problematic passive that kindred has now, why not just make it so at the start of the match Kindred either chooses Lamb or Wolf to lead the hunt.

Depending on who you pick you get different buffs/different traits to your abilities. Then, the rest of the kit would be easier to balance around not having a infinite scaling passive.

I'm sure that most Kindred players don't rely on the passive, if anything it would make it better because their next move won't be telegraphed to the enemy team with a GIANT BATSIGNAL above whoever they are trying to kill.

most kindred players do rely on the passive because that's literally the champion

I would say without Kindred's current passive that their play style wouldn't change and you cold accomplish everything you can now. You are still rewarded for counter jungling and ganking someone.

Whenever I play a match with Kindred 90% of the marks that appear in our jungle are not taken by the Kindred because other jungler's can out damage them early game and or just have your team help you kill them when they go for it.

Ya it is frustrated with getting collapsed on trying to get marks but in those games I manage to get a handful of marks I love it. When you can outrange cait that is pure joy.
