Chain Leather Armor(and craftable chainmail)

Notes:this idea works best if chain armor stays uncraftable or get a recipe using chains. By combining leather armor it would create an armor that can be dyed and has almost as much protection as diamond. The reason this should be added is because diamonds are semi hard to get so by adding a way to obtain a good armor that cannot be upgraded to netherite as-well as less durability and enchantability level it would offer a mid game alternative to diamond armor. This armor would be slightly less protective then diamond and still be somewhat hard to obtain due to the cows you have to kill and the fact you need chainmail. If chains become a recipe for chainmail this would explain why it’s more expensive then iron due to the chains you have to craft(if a recipe for chainmail gets added(using chains as a recipe for chainmail would make it more expensive then iron).
