I don't think players will want to risk killing their mounts as well. While I agree that the horse taking damage from being whipped every time is not practical in gameplay, I think that having a small chance (10% or less) for a horse to take damage when whipped would be beneficial. Or a second option would be if the horse is being repeatedly whipped in rapid succession it should take damage. I would far prefer the second option although I think it would be harder to code. I think having a system like this would add just enough realism while still being practical in gameplay. The horse will throw you off if you whip it too quickly. Is that not enought to balance it out?
