I was once told that the Dutch/European/USA?/global?) size-limit
between 'letter' and 'parcel', 3.2cm thickness (also being the size-
limit of postal-box-openings over here), was based on the diameter of
a film cannister....it fits, but barely, thick envelopes requires
some persistance....:))

anything thicker than 25mm (0.1  inch) now counts as a packet rather than a letter in the UK and attracts a minimum charge equivalent to  US$2.
