Then wouldn't it be just as silly to wear them in public on the plane?
No.

If it's silly to wear them out in public, then it's silly to wear them out in public. Planes are public places, just like buses and subway systems. Now, if it's just too cold to wear them out in the street, but you'd wear them to the grocery store on a hot day, then that's different. But if they aren't covering you enough to walk down the street, then they shouldn't be worn on the plane either, IMO.

Given that airlines give you pajamas to wear on long flights (I think United it is over 10 hours) and those are not something I'd ever wear to the grocery store or on the bus or subway, I'd say that they disagree with your opinion.

Make sure you get up and walk as much as possible and frequently flex your feet and ankles and wiggle your toes plenty in between.
Well - just as an aside I've heard some recommendations by the extremely paranoid to not wear full synthetics on a plane. Something about the risk in the rare case of a fire. I've heard about people who were wearing polyester or nylon trying to escape a fire, and the clothing just melted and stuck to the skin. While the US military has gone to more synthetics for their performance characteristics, I've heard that they still use 50/50 cotton/poly blends because it handles fire risk better.
The pajamas they give you are pretty spiffy though. Not sleep shorts that you wouldn't wear out in public. Much nicer.
Admittedly, I'm envisioning something like cotton pajama bottoms that just happen to end higher up the leg (not some weird see through wear).
