Armor Penetration and Armor resistance.

Actually I think its supports your theory of the quilted as the glue version really gave no or minimal protection at best.

I believe the quilting would give some additional resistance but understand why when other forms came readily available this form was made out moded. One of the major benefits is the weight this type armour is way lighter than bronze or iron if I had march 20km I chose the quilted linen each time.
