Opinions on the fit of this 36S suit from SuitSupply

I'm in the process of buying a starter suit from SuitSupply that I can wear to weddings and such. I'm 5'9/~153lbs or so with an athletic/slim body shape (~30inch waist, ~37? inch chest). I should probably add that I have long limbs (arms/ legs) relative to my torso size.

So anyway, I went to SuitSupply and unfortunately I didn't book an appointment with the most knowledgeable sales rep (I did like mine, though -- just relatively inexperienced), so I'd love to get some feedback here on it before I drop $600 on a suit. Here are picture: https://imgur.com/a/36s-X24InRF

So the sales rep & I agreed that the suit mostly looked good. We agreed that there were three main issues with the fit:
  • Sleeve is obviously too short.
  • A little too tight on the chest/ waist (you can see the X)
  • The shoulders sag a little bit. The sales rep pointed this out, I was skeptical at first but looking at the pictures, I think he was right.
I'm a little unsure about jacket length (it goes basically covers exactly my butt, I'm not sure if that's a little short). And the hardest part is always "unknown unknowns" -- is there something about the fit that is bad that I'm not even aware of? Would love the opinions of some folks who are more knowledgeable than me.
