Default Bow hair thickness

How does the thickness of the ribbon of hair affect the sound drawn in terms of loudness and affect of short attacks clarity. I don’t mean width I mean literally how much hair has what effect. Please do not rant about the hairs color or quality, or the stick weight, distribution or etc.; or the instrument or strings. only the thickness of the hair. ie: a thin amount of hair -vs- a thick amount of hair

change of mind, responses can include how they sound on bel cantos GDA or Helicore orchestral ext E strings.
