This sleeve length rule is all about appearance, not allowing the sport to look like a sandlot game. I agree there is no prohibition against short and long sleeves on the same team. Pitchers often wear a long sleeve when others do not. No problem with one player's medium size shirt fitting differently than another. There are 4-5 shirt sizes and 10-15 player sizes on most teams.
The ragged, frayed or slit part is obvious and the equal length on an individual player is an extension of that although I don't remember a violation example.
