Why would you shorten the jacket? As several have mentioned, the jacket you currently own is on the short side. The longer length is what you need.

The R will be too long in the sleeve for you. The sleeve on the S is already hiding your shirt cuff in the third photo. The bottom of the jacket should be level with your palm, which it is.
Disagree. You should be able to cup the bottom of the jacket with your palm when the jacket is the proper length. Clearly he can't with the small. So long as the buttons on the jacket aren't functional, shortening the sleeves on the regular shouldn't be a problem.
Sleeves are perfect but then length isn't.
If it was the "R" then the length would be perfect but the sleeves too long.
If there is enough distance between the cuffs and the gauntlet buttons to shorten them then that's the best option.
If by ‘hem’ you mean shortern the jacket body, I wouldn’t advise this at all. Sleeves OK, body no (or rarely, and by no more than an inch)
Are you sure you are measuring the length the same way as the store? The difference in length between S and R would normally be about an inch, and sometimes less.
