Meld and BH ww aside, do you lifesteal off the backstab damage from Lothar's or Vendetta or the ladder "run of the mill" windwalk?

Except Lanaya still has a backstab, just the backstab deals 0 damage.

The obvious reason to trigger the damage is to make it benefit from the armor reduction. This is similar to how other abilities work (e.g. reducing stats before dealing damage).

E: Didn't notice above post. Yes, you lifesteal off hardcoded backstabs.
