I agree it has no basis in the rulebook, and I don't see any mention of pads in the book either.

Given no book definition, we're left to using external definitions -in this case the only external definition of any use to us is the one used by the manufacturers of these.

Sleeves (any brand, I just looked at several on line) don't have pads; and those apparently hybridized things that have pads in them, on line, are labelled and sold as pads.
