It is stated here: "... as hard as the steel of the Dwarves, but so malleable that he could make it thin ...". So, despite the higher toughness (implied with 'hardness'), it was applied in thinner sheets, which perfectly justifies the current lower overall protection value imo. Thinner plates absorb less impact energy, hence have lower protective value. My take on it would be that it would have lower durability rather than lower protection, but as it is supposed to be thin would it not use less metal than other armors, not the same? I'd consider that nitpicking / unnecessary detailing. The crafting recipes of amour in minecraft are so off realism that an ingot more or less doesn't make any meaningful difference. There is no logical reason it would be weaker than Dwarven Explain why it would be stronger if it was applied in thinner sheets. He isn't. He is saying that if it were applied in sheets, it wouldn't be as strong, but that it shouldn't be applied in thin sheets.
