A jumper is a bad example, because it's not just made up of sleeves.

A bra is a much better example. But I was never making an argument that all things made up of two parts are referred to as a pair, just my thoughts on the rationale behind cases where we do.

I'd say it's less of a grammar rule and more about how things made up of two similar parts can be conceptualised

I'm not an expert or qualified in any way, but my guess would be it would be fine without the syrup. Maybe a little bit more butter and milk could make up for the missing syrup in terms of texture. I imagine the sugar in the syrup helps the yeast along more, so maybe to compensate you could let the dough rise for longer?
