How would the failure to use a lint free cloth affect your cigars?

I beg to differ. Bob is correct and you are not. Wood is wood. Dry wood will dry out your cigars. This is exactly why you need to season a wooden humidor and do not need to season a (plastic) cooler (where there is no wood).

The point of seasoning is to saturate the wood with moisture -- this applies to any wood.

but I have a bigger penis......let it go! I won't even go into RH depending on where someone lives, what your levels are in your existing humidor or the fact that more and more companies are selling trays and humidors that are already pre-treated (certainly you know that). But I digress.....pissing contests are more entertaining.

Trays pre-treated with what? water and then shipped air tight, or some other chemical? It would be nice to know which companies are doing this so I can avoid them
