Our house was built with the big blocks. Than filled with cement and steel bars. Our foundation goes 8 feet down to bed rock. We have been through a number of quakes. The only thing that happened was a big picture fell from the wall. Broke the !!!! out of it too.
Most people will use the 4 inch blocks. It is all they can afford. Some times it might take them years to build a small house. When they get extra money they will buy a few supplies.

Well 4" blocks are definitely better than bamboo. Glad you have a good solid foundation.
