It seems to me that maintaining the pleats would be, uh, a pain where a pill won't reach (as my old Granny used to say.) One great advantage of acrylic and pv kilts is that they're wash and hang dry and require little maintenance of the pleats. With linen you'd have to press the pleats every time you washed it.
