For context, the illustration by Howard K. Elcock. Notice Watson's NEARNESS. (And Holmes' arm, that doesn't strike me as particularly thin; it's true that Watson is watching it, though.)
Naked and close to Watson in a hammam, Holmes is LESS RETICENT and MORE HUMAN than anywhere else, showing his LONG, THIN, NERVOUS ARM. Watson is NEARER him than anyone else, just waiting TO BE USED...
Out of context but by a hair's breadth.
(From The Adventure of the Illustrious Client, February and March 1925 issues of The Strand)
