Well, it'll be affected by the fact that the 2x2 version has considerably different internal geometry than the 2x4 version, but the 2x4 version has much more sturdy geometry than you'll find inside either a 2x4 brick or plate.

The crack between bricks in a wall depends on which way the 1x2 are pointing. One end of each brick is a (...) (22 years ago, 1-Jul-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.color, lugnet.general, FTX)
