I was considering that - I was going to ask Does the wood age somehow? Does age change its tone? Almost like a "curing". Interesting. The violin people would know about that I guess.

Everything in the guitar needs to cure. Playing the instrument helps in the creation of the tone over time. Makers and players are well aware of this process.

This is called the aging process. It has been well researched in the Violin market.

Please take my advice and forget about shortening your jacket. It's going to cost you a lot of money, not only because of the alteration itself but also because you'll end up with a butchered jacket that you won't be able to sell. A total write off.

Shortening jackets is tricky because you're messing with the overall proportions. It may only yield positive results on long halfbelt or long cafe racer styles.
