But my gut read was all wrong so I didn't intrude into his basted world.

Ron,
I spent three decades in Human Services and even from a picture alone that is the way that I’d also “read” that gentleman.
Of course he might need to be in constant contact with a medical situation in his family or in a professional role.
But he’s more likely an over-controlling micromanager unable to delegate.
With a self-image inseparable from the appearance of industriousness and importance
Wearing the kilt with little enjoyment and/or false pride because it’s the “expected” dress or to establish “membership” in or even “ownership” of the event.

But that’s a lot of speculative assumptions and off topic other than to say DON’T wear the kilt (or attend a leisure event) as a half-interested afterthought.
