Great question and welcome to 360Tuna linesider04!
The more strands in a braid, the softer, more supple, and flexible the line is.
The individual strands also become much smaller as the thread count goes up in order for the resulting finished line to be at the correct diameter.
IMO, it's up for discussion and personal preference -and what your value quotient is- as to the optimum strand count in a braided line.
The 16 strand product feels like lush, silk thread, but with the additional strands (threads) comes increased costs. As far as I've seen so far, the 16 strand only comes in hollow. I think JB produces 16 strand but don't know if it's hollow or solid.
