I watched this show on Disney +.

You ever watch something and wish you could love it but just kinda enjoy it? That was this for me.
There's a lot of elements there that could have made this great and awesome. Good actors and cast, compelling characters, a good story. When it call came together, it was disappointing. I had hopped this to be a step up in MCU show quality from WandaVision but was left with just another "okay" show. and with some ham fisted political undertones thrown in.
and they did John Walker sort of dirty as US Agent. The show framed it like he was sort of the bad guy in this but in reality most of what he did was justified and just over blown by reactions. He was the best character but was undercut by agenda.
As of writing this, I have not seen Thunderbolts yet, but hope that he's done better there.

Mistake Status: Possible future project.

Factual error: Every guard in the prison has the emblems of Hamburg on his/her shoulders of the uniforms. Zemo is said to be imprisoned in Berlin, so they are wearing the wrong emblems.

Chosen answer: The sleeve probably would have been ripped to shreds in battle anyway. He was just saving time by ripping it himself. Also, gunfighters would take off their coats in a duel or an arm wrestler rolling up his sleeve.

Answer: Aside from visual aesthetics and it being nice to see the metal arm. In world/practically I think (and I believe this is the reason why he tends to not have a left sleeve in most action we've seen him in prior films) it's also to assist with mobility during fights. The metal arm likely behaves a little differently than a human/bone and flesh arm does - and restricting that in a sleeve during a fight (especially in a thicker jacket sleeve) might mess with his reflexes. So removing the sleeve probably assists with the mobility of that arm.

Answer: That's the impression I got. Plus, he was expecting to go into battle, so perhaps he thought it would make him look more intimidating.
