Folding something 10 times results in about 1000 layers, 11 times is about 2000 layers. So you get to “thousands of layers” with low double-digit folds. But I don’t think most people think about the difference between layers and folds; when they hear “thousands of layers,” they think many more folds than it actually is or they just use them interchangeably getting it totally wrong.
