Not exactly, it's a good balance between an inconditional, hard kill spell and its cost. Cheaper removal should be conditional, and while the more things a removal can hit, it should be more expensive as it becomes more versatile.
1BB for instant speed kill with no conditions or drawbacks is pretty good in today's world. Compare Angelic Purge and Anguished Unmaking.
Both of those cards have much better effects than Murder does.
Murder is a card that I wish were in every limited format, but it's a very mediocre constructed card (still quite playable).
Murder is like Cancel -- a simple staple effect that you could tack a small upside to (as in Hero's Downfall) but is strong enough that you can't shave an entire 1 mana off its cost without having to make it more conditional somehow.
Oh, man, I just realized--if there are "vehicles" in Kaladesh, might those include Zeppelins? They've certainly shown up in the background of artworks set on Kaladesh.
If I can build a Zeppelin deck, that is a thing I will be doing, 100%.
