In many cases the gauntlet cuff has been made separately and attached to the sleeve. Once you figure out how it is attached, taking it off and shortening the sleeve is pretty simple- And, because of the amount of sleeve material that is covered by the cuff, it is often possible to add some more length under the cuff. Either way, it is easier to alter than removing the PC style ornament and re-attaching it. If that strip were to cover an actual functioning placket and cuff, I think alterations would be tricky indeed.
