I don't know what thumb he is looking on that has a rule stating start-up is twice the full load current. Unless it is on an autotransformer or some reduced current starter the motor startup current is at least 6 X Full Load Current.
Should ask him why they don't only sell AFCI circuit breakers if the regular kind don't work. LOL
