I don't think Luffy needs to look "tight." The whole simplicity about his character is what makes people love him. And yes, I agree it would be a sentimental touch and respectful of his brother, but you gotta think how traumatic it was to lose him. I, in my honest opinion, do not think he needs a constant reminder about the trauma he suffered when Ace died.
