16 damage is a huge difference. It can make or break a fight. Not to mention once that knife leaves your hand, it's gone. Why should a headshot with a knife that you have to aim do barely more than an ability melee from any other class? That's just bad design. If anything throwing knife should have remained untouched or buffed

Well yeah, it's a throwing knife. It requires aiming and enemy movement prediction. Simply slapping someone in melee range takes neither.
