I get the concept of Frost, but typically, you're going to build one or the other of Katana or Frost to help keep enemies close. Katana is by far the more aggressive option and meant more for a 1v1 target situation, and allows you to truly stick to an enemy. Frost is in fact the more teamfight-based one, as you're controlling the enemy's MS/AS, and giving yourself some health to also survive a bit longer in a bigger fight.
But again, you typically don't build both, because in a way, they both are used for somewhat the same purpose in keeping an enemy closer. Using 2 item slots by getting both items really starts limiting what you can get in the rest of your build.
Then, when you're talking Qin's, or just going for a more offensive build overall, you really want that pen. With Qin's, you get your AS up so you get more passive procs, and if you've got a good attack progression in the god's kit, that also helps. But that passive damage proc is physical damage, not true damage, and so to get the most out of it, you also want to build more pen. In a basic attack build, that almost always means The Executioner. You're seriously lacking in pen, and getting your first pen item in slot #6 is just not cutting it for damage potential.
And of course, in the end, it's just not all that great to build an AS Cu.
