This is a site for computer nerds, and to them doubling is an order of magnitude.

(Well at least to the subset who think in binary. For those who prefer hex, even a factor of 10 won’t do it).

Order of magnitude = 10. Binary order of magnitude = twofold = 2x.

Mixing terminology as it suits oneself is considered deceitful and/or manipulative. Making excuses for someone who does this and doesn't restate/recant is also bad form.

Although if jocularity in your message whooshed over my head I apologise for that.
