Seems like a terrible idea to me.

You make one mistake one time and bingo, you cost yourself a few grand to have it sanded, leveled, varnished, and polished.

I would go with linoleum but i don’t think i can convince my husband that it’s not the same as vinyl.

"Vinyl is bad because it's made of petroleum, whereas real linoleum is made of plants and is therefore more eco-friendly" isn't sufficient?

(I have to admit, the other advantages of linoleum over vinyl are... not much.)

Linoleum is also antibacterial, which is a good property for a kitchen floor.

I don't think so. He'll say it still looks like old rolled out vinyl.
