It seems to me that if you have to drill the hole extra large for the sleeve you will decrease the strength of the panel at that point. Then by installing the sleeve and expanding it with a shank you are further stressing the area. You will then have a wood to metal to wood bond whereas a shank, dowel or plug glued in place is sufficient.
