Alright time to give my two cents to the end. It's a coincidence that they look similar likely as a result of the same illustrator Abec. Character designs will share some similarities, if you are implying that Sachi's data influenced Yui's form by some digital, cosmic fate thingy, it is unlikely and probably won't ever be validated unless the author goes out of his way and messes with the laws of reality a bit like he does on occassion. It's coincidence nothing more we can't answer it beyond that. It was also likely Yui would have taken on different forms if she was functioning properly and SAO didn't turn into a death game, which revoked most of her actions.
