I abused the terminology there.  I was thinking how "densely packed"  the
chips appeared to be on the module, whereas the bit-density is
comparatively low versus modules of the same capacity implemented with
fewer chips as you point out.  Thanks for setting me straight!

I am arriving at the same conclusion :(
