Yata being overhyped in the databook is not impossible. It's the databook that overhypes, the Manga never made bold claims as to how the shield worked. So no, Kishimoto didn't restrict it's use due to being OP, because it never was OP in the Manga.

Sure Kishimoto may once have had such plans for it, but it's evident that in the end, the Databook description does not match actual Manga use.
