I asked them and they don't know. It's clearly not anything on a visible scale cause I assure you I do not have trillions of cenimetres, millilitres, or anything of that sort in my body. I know I'm big, but not that big!

I can only assume it is literally the number of platelets.

I believe that to get this quantity of platelets would be more blood removed than is healthy. Yknow?

Plus this allows you to donate more frequently.

Oh and platelets are given to cancer patients most of the time. As opposed to blood which is more for trauma and blood loss.

I'm probably way too late, but how often do you hear someone use the word "stave"?

Also they are called platelets because the microscopes in use back then couldn't show that much detail, and they looked like discs, or plates.

I wonder if where are cuplets, saucerlets and bowllets too?

Those are platelets, breh!  They centrifugate (yes that's a made up form of that verb) the blood to extract the various parts.  The platelets are collected and everything else is returned to meeeeeee.
