They’re made up of two similar parts which form a pair, unlike a jumper
A jumper is a bad example, because it’s not just made up of sleeves.
A bra is a much better example. But I was never making an argument that all things made up of two parts are referred to as a pair, just my thoughts on the rationale behind cases where we do.
