It is the same but works basically like scaling ad . Eventually you'll get the full value.

Lethality is literally useless until they hit level 11. It scales with their champion level.

lethality is armor pen only it scales with the enemies level so against a level 1 enemy you'll have a small amount of armor penetration and against a level 18 enemy you'll have a bigger amount of armor penetration against them. Lethality is pretty garbage atm tho so don't take any runes for them

For every 10 lethality you get 4 flat armor pen plus up to 6 armor pen that scales with the level of your target (so +3 armor pen if the target is level 9 since 6*(9/18) = 3), so at max level it's the same as the old flat armor pen but is worse from levels 1-17.
