Sorry but your explanation is not self consistent. It works for "2x more" but not "2x larger". Those are two different words that mean two different things
Yes, those are two different words, and like many sets of two words, their meanings aren't identical. High five.
If you believe "2x more" and "2x larger" represent two different arithmetic expressions, such that (I assume) one of them means "3x" and the other means "2x," then you must have a much more advanced understanding or the language and of arithmetic than I have. Go with God, and good luck.
