The curled pencil brim absolutely makes a difference to the structural integrity of the hat.
it will make a difference in the brim getting "bacon" but will do nothing for a sagging break.
...and a sagging break is what you worry about the wider the brim gets
enjoy your beautiful hat
a hatter will always tell you that because they want to guarantee their work ... I took a chance and have seen zero ill effect or change in the brim in years of heavy wear
