Wow, what's the reason for this??

Tested and replicated, can confirm.

Here is the combat log of Lion killing Lifestealer under Death Delay:

A quote from @TheZett on reddit:

The (...) issue is due to Open Wounds’s custom coded spell lifesteal being able to spell lifesteal off of HP Removal damage instances, unlike all other sources of spell lifesteal.
It also lets you survive the guaranteed death of Wraith Delay (WK Aghs aura), if the guy who put you down is affected by Open Wounds.
Open Wounds should not be able to spell lifesteal off of HP Removal damage instances, just like regular spell lifesteal behaves.

This will be fixed in the next hotfix. Thanks for the bug report!

This feature with lifestealer has been working since 2017, although in matchmaking it did not help to win.
