Question about oiling

Sorry, I raise again this thread because I am interested in Pak Alan's statement "wrap the blade in a plastic sleeve". I think it will trigger new rust if we wrap the blade in plastic sleeve for long term after oiling. Yes, I agree a plastic sleeve is purposed to prevent oil dry out but in other side it will trigger new rust. Usually here, they wrap the blade in plastic sleeve only for temporary after marangi done, maybe more less 1-2 months. After that, just remove the plastic sleeve and oil the blade regularly to preserve the blade.
