Attacking champs' evade abilities shouldn't trigger while blocking

I've noticed this for a while now but it's become more of an issue as I work my way through Variant 8 using Domino. As far as I can recall, all newer champs that can evade have a stipulation in their description that the evade will not trigger while blocking. That is obviously to stop an issue when using the champion in attack where they will evade when you're blocking, which in turn messes up your timing and causes you to take hits when you should have parried.
The problem is, that is still an issue with older champions. I expect most notably Domino because she's still decent and will be heavily used in Variant 8, but it applies to all older evade champions like OG Spiderman, Symbiotic Spiderman, Black Widow etc. I'm sure there will be one or two exceptions who for whatever reason should evade while blocking, but generally speaking I don't see why the older champs can't all just be updated so that they do not trigger evade while blocking, which will bring them in line with how Kabam now (rightly) want that ability to work.

I ask because the games timing seems to change every day for me, and if my block/parry isn't perfect, a champion like OG spidey will evade the fight attack hit, then the block comes up. I'm yet to come across a scenario [apart from with Nightcrawler] where the champion blocks the first hit and then evades after.
