That's the point. You pay a price as well, especially when you have bad luck and Kambi is not on your hand but in the deck, waiting to come out at the worst moment...
Discard has the best deck thinning out of any deck though? You're more likely to draw Kambi than your opponent drawing something they need.

I guess you would have to be okay with not having a counter for everything your opponent plays. We have enough counters in the game in terms of removal right?
I don't use Kambi but I've had it used against me on select few occasions; in some instances it did its job and in others it bricked. I never saw it as a broken mechanic to begin with and I'm completely ok with it.
Here's the thing: I was a rather dedicated MtG player for several years where targeted discard is very much a thing. You can look at a player's hand and do away with whatever poses the biggest threat to your deck. Coming from that background, Kambi is not a detrimental card. It's also not threatening enough to see it often as it requires a fair bit of luck to pull off the play. Broke Ciri said it: "high risk, high reward". These type of cards don't see a lot of competitive play because of their RNG-based nature.
This is a good explanation to why you're okay with Kambi but I still don't like the fact that it denied my leader and gave him card advantage. I'm not saying the card itself is immensely powerful or anything, but the ability itself is kind of broken because of the two former reasons I've been mentioning.

Kambi is unique and interesting card. Its not broken. Don't touch it, I dont want to play same cards in every faction, like every 4 provision card is always 4 points, every 5 is 5 and so on - its perfectly balanced, but its boring...
Denying my leader and granting card advantage is pretty broken. I mean "broken" in the sense that this ability has no place being in this game. I don't recall ever saying I want every card in the game to be boring and uninteresting. We could talk about that but on a different topic.
