Right. The rule of thumb is that the overhead size of the model that's not the weights is so vastly outweighed by the actual number of weights that it can be disregarded. My shorthand for that was to write "the weights take up ~100% of the size of the model". What then "follows", both in the sense that the explanation is written after the rule as well as that it logically follows, is that, well, 100 billion bytes is, you know, 100 GB. I don't see why you're, like, paying so much attention to this?
Well, yeah, the straight multiplication, er, well, "follows" from the rule of thumb. Hope that helps!
Saying, well a rule of thumb is, well, 100 billion bytes is a 100 gigabytes, is well, not a rule of thumb. It is, well, just the common definition.
