0.1mm seems awfully thin for a double edged blade.

It's also unreasonable to assume they will stack anywhere close to perfectly.

My guess is you're off by at least a factor of 20.

While true, 1 blade a day for 120 years is also off by a factor of 20 in the other direction.

Number came from Feather

I already covered the "don't stack perfectly" thing, but the vast majority would still fall flat.
