When you have solid board core and a layer on both side that is pretty

Your requirements of this or that or orientation doesn't hold water.

Apple ply is not the same as a fur or pine ply.

Having a solid core is strong. The ply's on the outside is dressing.

I'd call that "veneer", not "plywood".

You'd be wrong, veneer is not plywood. Veneer becomes plywood when two

No. It becomes plywood if the veneers are glued cross-grain.
That's fundamental to the definition of plywood. If you don't
beleive that, go ask the APA.

Agreed and IIRC. Plywood always has an odd number of ply's.
