Will we get a champion who ignores protection/safeguard?

It’s been a mechanic for ages and has become more and more common. Unlike regular resistances there isn’t really a way to ignore or bypass it yet, however do we think we will see a champion who can do so?
All sorts of interactions have been manipulated in almost every way imaginable, think about crits, resistances, regen, buffs and debuffs, surely protection is next on the chopping block to receive a work around/counter?
Or is protection such a fundamental mechanic, involved mainly in the form of nodes rather than champion abilities, that any champ who can bypass it would be too powerful? Maybe they could limit personal protection effects, ignoring nodes, or do we already have that in the form of AAR?
Just a neat little thought experiment i would like to hear others thoughts on

Reaching sp3 while she can use special to inflict nova flame that still a great ask
So the only way it can be prevented as if now is by using ability accuracy reduction.
Maybe a champ with the clause "if damage is reduced by any means, deal and additional burst of x damage" can be useful.
But the problem is that that damage would also be subject to the protection damage reduction.
I am missing this down side to playing him that you claim exists.
