Well in my mind, wood is more or less the core of the sandwich, and the strength of a sandwich is proportionnaly relative to the thickness of the core, regardless of the core's mechanical properties (by the way, when you use high density foam as core, it has nearly no mechanical properties)

So reducing the thickness of the wood, lowers the resistance of the hull, in two ways => less wood + thinner sandwich.

But if I can reduce my strips to 4mm thickness and save 1/3rd of the weight due to the wood, well why not, I just have to find a tool to reduce thickness, and I won't be able to make beads & cove in such thin strips ;)
