Somebody already mentioned that using milk as part of the liquid
in bread makes it richer (which is true), but something in the back
of my mind says that it also makes the crust softer.

More water - crispier crust
More milk - softer/more tender crust

So by adding more water, your crust should be crisper -- which jives
with your description.

Who would be planning to try out this recipe this weekend except she's
going to Twelfth Night Coronation instead.
