The worst thing on here is the Character Unit Attachment - it means you can't augment such units on the other lists. It is already sucks for you can't have two or more Unit Attachment on the same list so it penalize your attempt to put two or more of same unit as well, but that's out of topic right now. Anyway, it gets even worse if the rules stays.
I sincerely doubt this is the worst case. Most units with a Character unit attachment aren't available in more than one Theme anyway, so you're less likely to run in to the same issue than you would with the Solos.

Trollkin champs (with Skaodi the character UA) are the core beaters in the faction and in both our best infantry themes. There exists at least one the player who argues Skaldi is not worth his points, but for most of us he is an auto-include with the unit.

I don't know if it would hurt Crucible Guard the most but between Alyce, Prospero, Mosby, and Gorman/Hutchuk it would certainly create some decisions since it is likely some of my lists overlap in at least 1/2 of those models. I am glad character restrictions are gone though because the themes are already enough of a restrictive layer on army building in general for the game for my tastes.

Legion has the most units with Character Attachments, and only one can be taken in more than one Theme. Skorne has one for the Cetrati, but they can only be taken in one Theme. That's 2 of 5 off the top of my head, any more?

Jussika Bloodtongue, but only playable in Slaughter Fleet Raiders.

With Minions and Mercs on a back log because of Themes, the Ranking Officers aren't that much of a concern as it is, though they probably do run more often than most Character Attachments.

Well, I still think that theme lacks something to be a dominant option, and generally non-theme is the better choice even now, but that's my opinion. Anyway, give some free rag-tag model doesn't change the game dramatically I think. Also, it prevents you to put some unit in two or more lists, so it limits to field that unit so badly anyways.

It's not one free model, it's the several free models which may include Warbeasts, weapon crew units, or even some very small units (interestingly, all of those are options in Skorne Themes), and they often can be used for some great support models like the Basilisk Krea or Command Attachments.
