We already have plenty of ninjas in the roster. Last thing we need is for Hitomi to be another ninja and have Karate being passed on to a different character yet again.
And Kasumi and Ayane are both just ninja chicks who use ninja flips and junk. But no one seems to confuse them.
Anyway, back on topic:
Played with some snotty guy earlier who beat my Marie and sent me a message saying "just another scrub." So naturally I picked Hayabusa next round and turned...
Different stances, totally different outfits, totally different gameplan, completely different throws and holds...
They're about as similar as Kasumi and Ayane, and confusing those two still seems pretty nutty, to me.
That would be a "High Counter"
"Hi Counter" (spelled like the short version of "hello") is usually reserved for the NH, CH, HiC system.
To answer the question: No, not really. I have more issues with expert low holds than expert high holds.
