I'm afraid that's BS -- saddles used to be broken in when they were made of leather, because leather softens & molds to conform with your body. The new saddles are synthetic materials. They don't break in, it's your butt that breaks in, if it breaks in at all. You'll have to see how it goes with your healing as to whether your butt can deal with that saddle. But the saddle will not "break in" if you ride it for 100 years.
