Just because it can be peeled apart layer by layer, and if you fold paper up so much it deforms the paper and doesn't look too good, have you ever seen the trick where phone books are interleaved and because of the friction caused by the intermolecular forces between the pages (and because there is so many this effect is multiplied) they cannot be pulled apart, can do some cool stuff with paper
I did see something once where single sheets of news paper were rolled up really tightly by a machine and could be used to build fairly big, really strong structures, like the size of a room which you could climb on.
I suppose it isn't used much just because its unconventional and if it got wet that would be fairly bad for the structural integrity of any paper building.
Oh, and they make the candy lolly pop sticks out of tightly rolled paper and they are fairly strong.
Im not some kind of in the closet paper fact lover btw i just know a lot of fairly useless things lol
someone should invent waterproof paper... And it could be awesome(r)
