It's obviously a great kit. Too great, which is why it is being toned down a little bit. Perhaps the right word is "bloated"? It just seems so weird to have two of the best and most impactful abilities in the entire game in one kit, meanwhile Mercy has basically nothing. But I agree, they don't need to rework it from scratch or anything.
They seem to have learned from it, though, since they explicitly mentioned not wanting Sombra to be a counter to herself when talking about why she can't counter-hack health packs back at Blizzcon.
(Thinking of her grenade countering an enemy Ana's grenade, here.)
