This is actually more historically correct/"traditional", as they didn't have double-width tartan back in the day.

As has been mentioned, 5 yards will be more than enough length unless you're really substantial. I have one 5-yard feileadh mor and really wouldn't want more than that. I like 4 & 1/2 just fine, and could do perfectly well with 4 yards. (I'm 5'10" and 175 pounds.)
