As Todd stated, plywood has an odd number of layers, where the grain is oriented in perpendicular direction. A "double-top" has only 2 layers of very thin tonewood, glued with the grain oriented in the same direction. It will add strength without sacrificing tonal response, and they are far more expensive than a solid wood top, and sound better. Calling the double-top plywood, is simply not accurate.
