It’s not really a problem, you just adjust the size of your assumed storm. We have lots of climate models and data to adjust predicted sizes.
Climate change effects are already being included when calculating wind and wave loading in many codes.
The real issue is that engineering codes use frequentist methods which make it hard to consider uncertainty, which often makes it unclear what the real safety factors are. This issue is being solved by using probabilistic engineering techniques, and in future, more sophisticated causal inference.
