Your memory is just fine! 
Yes indeed, in my youth it was not uncommon to have this done to add extra years to a fine kilt. I can't say that I have noticed one like that recently. I honestly believe that many of you are overthinking all this and it really is not a big deal to anyone other than to the customer.
