I must have missed the advice about the sleeves, what did he experience?
Typically with linen (this has been discussed elsewhere, this is not my sage advice or experience) the sleeves get pretty hard creases that pull the sleeve measurement up. If the sleeves get altered before really wearing it, then the creases are had the sleeves become much too short. YMMVWhat was his rationale for that advice to not alter the sleeves till after the jacket has been work a few times?
Edit: As with anything there are limitations. If the sleeves are obviously too long, the creases won't help much.
