I think most people know that a suit is more formal than a sport coat, even if they can't articulate the nuances regarding tailored clothing. In my office, I can get away with a sport coat even if most people are dressed more casually. I would feel wildly out of place in a "serious suit" (like a navy worsted). I would also feel wildly out of place in a casual suit, at least while at work. Would feel kind of dandy. But navy sport coat feels very natural.
Many of the older people where I work wear navy sport coats to lunch, and some of the more conservatively dressed younger people do as well (not StyleForum types, just normal, regular guys). Older meaning above 60 years old; younger meaning in their 30s and 40s.
