This needle size is suitable for medium thickness of fabrics (e.g., 180 GSM jersey fabric).
For making t-shirts knits fabric is used. There are chances of needle cut (cutting yarns in the fabric) if a sharp point and thick needle is used. If there are needle cut in the seam line after coupe of washing the t-shirt.
Though this topic is discussed the needle size specific to t-shirt stitching, same thing applied to other knitted items that are made of knits fabric with similar thickness. Like knitted tops, knits leggings, shorts, etc.
