If I thought that 'the market would bear it', I would do it, make saddles lined with something else x$ cheaper and advise people to spend that extra on a good pad. That is the advice that i usually dispense on requested relines. But tradition demands sheepskin and tradition usually wins. FYI sheepskin was declared to be a critical commodity during the waning part of WWII and many saddles were lined with felt.
