Acid + Burning resistance to leather.

Just a little observation/suggestion.
Animals, both wild and bought, are completely immune to environmental hazards. I'm guessing its due to their thick hides? (yes I know its just game mechanics) Would it not make sense to add some of this resistance to items made from their protective leather?
I've yet to see a shirt slot item with environmental protections. Wouldn't it make sense if the two leather shirts gave some Acid and Burning protection? After all, they don't seem to have any holes in them and they are made from that immune animal leather, especially the turtleneck version since it covers the whole upper body and most of the arms. It should not matter which layer of armor (shirt or armor) stops the acid from burning your skin off, right?
It would give us a reason to wear them other then that they don't fuck up stealth or crossbows.
Maybe also add some of the same protection to the other leather items, like the jacket and the pants? Even the rather open leather armor still covers some amount, maybe its worth an 10% or so?
Also, have you considered adding anything special to the traders backpack with the little sunscreen? Would be funny if it had some minor protection value, I guess just some acid protection might make sense. XD
EDIT: Maybe the open leather armor could give some Burning resistance but no Acid resistance? That would make more sense and would allow you to give a little more like 20% or 30%.
