Just to be pedantic isn't magnitudes in this case referring to order of magnitude that basically means in this case 1E X so 100 million would be 1E8 and 100 billion would be 1E11 so a difference of only 3 while difference to 1 would be 8 and to zero the difference is infinite
Yes, 100 billion is 3 orders of magnitude bigger than 100 million.
