Hello!
So, Abundance sets an optional replacement effect for all draws, and you stop drawing any cards and start "putting cards into your hand" instead.
If you choose to resolve Sylvan Library trigger and draw two cards, you are forced to choose two cards in your hand drawn this turn. But, as you have replaced all draws thanks to Abundance, you can't choose any cards to return and as such, you don't return any cards and you suffer no loss of life.
Is this correct? With both in play, you start drawing 3 cards per turn, and you'll choose whether they are land or not? This looks pretty nice in my book, though a 2 card combo (costing 2 and 4 mana respectively) should win you the game in competitive legacy, I guess, instead of putting you in a really favorable position.
