Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that silicon does not form stable layered structures analogous to graphite due to its larger atomic radius?

No. Peer-reviewed research demonstrates that silicon can indeed form stable two-dimensional and nanolayer hexagonal structures, refuting the claim that its atomic radius prevents such formations.
