There are too many lethality sources

There's a reason that the only magic pen items in the game are item 3020 and item 3151. Even Liandry's is niche instead of being designed as a "bread and butter" item. On top of that, mages are typically more dependent on mana, so instead of just rushing pen they have to buy mana items.

At 4 items an assassin could be carrying item 3814 item 3147 item 3142, when in previous seasons they really only had item 3142 and the old item 3071 (which was weaker at nuking squishies because some of it's power budget was focused into anti-tank stats and health)

No one should be able to have like 50 lethality.

And that is a big part of why Liandry's is niche. Meanwhile on the AD side even though Lethality doesn't completely wipe out your armor, it's being applied AFTER Black Cleaver which makes Lethality even more broken against both tanks and squishies. Void staff has the tradeoff of extreme gold inefficiency.
