If you play thickly, then how can you hope for the opponent to attack? It would me more logically to play ''thinly' and wait for the attack, then counterattack.
You can be thick in one place, then invade somewhere else which makes a weak group. The opponent attacks this weak group and you can use your thickness in a counter-attack.
