Why doesn't J4 or Vi percent health physical damage on-hit proc lifesteal?

JarvanIV and Vi (let me know if there are more) seem to have special cases where their percent health passives specifically do not proc lifesteal. item 3153 used to specifically not proc lifesteal on its own on-hit damage but they got rid of that limitation. Kindred gets to proc lifesteal on its on-hit damage passive.

It seems more recent changes show that Riot is moving away from being scared of sustain from percent health damage. Even right now both Vi and JarvanIV can build item 3812 and even item 3146 and still heal from their percent health damage, and it doesn't seem to be overpowered or anything.

I think these artificial limitations are a relic of the past and should be removed.

Onhits like those never proc lifesteal unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Take my +1

I have wondered this myself.

Would make J4 top much stronger since he builds item 3074
