Shiv Ult Goes Through Cheat death

I consider this a bug, but not with the interaction.

The bug is with the item's name + description. The text description reads "lethal damage" which I agree is different than "kill" or "execute".

The issue is that the item is advertised as Cheat "Death" not Cheat "lethal damage".

IMO there's only some solutions:
1. Allow cheat death to work regardless of dmg vs. execute.
2. Rename the item from Cheat Death to something like Death Barrier or Ghost Barrier or Patron's Protection or something that isn't specifically cheating "death., This gives the some leeway to be interpreted differently depending on hero/ability interaction nuances
3. Modify Cheat Death's mechanics to include executes, but interact differently such as a reduced immunity time or a reduced spawn time (only for executes).
