Well, I'll let you in on a big secret! It's treason, but WTH. The wide hem has to go at the top, because that is where we've placed the brain sensors. If you've a "bad brain," then we know not to come abduct you for our experiments. If you've a "good brain," then we know exactly where you are. Now, if you switch it on us and we run out of "good brains," then we will just abduct you anyway. Mind you, there aren't many "good brains" out there, so we abduct a lot of people who don't follow the proper protocol.

I knew there was a valid reason. Thank you for providing it.

Of course the big hem has to do with the brain, it has to be located close to it.
It is not that simple about "Bad" and "Good" brains. Now you can get a brain transplant.
There was this guy who was not feeling all that well. So he goes to the doctor, doc sezs; "You got a bad brain".
Guy sezs; "What I do about it".
Doc sezs; "We can do a brain transplant".
Guy sezs; "How much does it cost?"
Doc sezs; "We can give you a truck driver's brain for $200, accountant's brain for $400, engineer's brain for $1000, rocket scientist brain for $2000, TV executive in charge of programming content on TV for $10,000,000".
Guy sezs; "I always wanted to be in the TV business, why so much for that type of brain?"
Doc sezs; "Do you know how many TV executive type guys we have to kill to get one ounce of brains?"
For the record, I have no direct knowledge how any of them put their sheets. I also do not know the amount of brains required to get it exactly right. I do know if I get a brain transplant it will not be from any woman, no matter how cheap it might be or how smart they claim to be. I also know a number of them claim, I have no brains way too many times, even if I do manage to get the sheets right. Mostly they claim I hog the sheets, the big hem gives you a better grip.
It is consider a "fine dress maker's detail" to have a larger hem at the top of the sheets. It is a matter of design. Many sheets have embroidery, lace or a contrasting fabric at the top. They are made this way to have a more finished appearance on the top, as that is the area you see.
If you notice how fine hotels make up beds, a blanket goes on top of the sheet, and then the top of the sheet is folded over (deeply). This keeps your face away from the blanket (folding the sheet over the blanket). It looks more elegant to have a wide band (or an embellished band) folded over the blanket.
There are rules for anything one fashions out of fabric, lol. One rule is that women's zippers always go to the left side, not the right side. Another is that any large piece of fabric intended to be used as a sheet has a large hem at the top. That identifies it easily from a tablecloth, wh/ is hemmed equally all the way around.
Historically, the smaller that upper "hem" or band of embellished fabric at the top of the sheet, the cheaper the sheet. It takes more fabric to make deep hems - thus, anything w/ deeper hems signaled "more expensive" (i.e. curtains and sheets).
The wider hem lays heavier/stays in place and rumples less. Plus that tag. But I cut that sucker off.
