If by smoking jacket you mean a space suit that he can smoke inside, then I agree with you.
A smoking jacket is a jacket you wear while smoking, so that the smell sticks to it, instead of the rest of your clothes. It was common back when smoking was cool and not something for losers
I get that, but smoke being a vapor, is not subject to the whims of fabric. For the same reason we don't make balloons out of smoking jackets.
Smoking jackets are usually leather, aren't they? To "look cool" and it's mostly non-porous.
My history teacher in high school had one. He never smelled like cigarettes.
Smoke is mostly particulates, I think, and most of it will absolutely stick to the jacket and spare the clothing below.
