One plane can't carry enough to make one trail and a thousand planes can't carry enough to make a thousand trails
I admire your tenacity but your line of speculation is repetitive and rather boring. If you cannot understand then perhaps you should look elsewhere for entertainment.

Maths?
I have spent a lot of time outdoors for many long hours each day some days there is nothing and the contrails come out of the jets only at the discharge of the engines and quickly disappear. Other days, usually very clear, cloudless days, the trails coming out of some of these aircraft are emanating from 5 or 6 points.
There are not that many engines on any commercial aircraft.
These trails start off thick and slowly grow getting larger and larger, growing pinkish as they do and the attract to other previously laid trails until they form one continuous, sometimes crisscrossed pinkish bank of "clouds" that spread out, do not go away and eventually fill the entire sky all day long.
.
If you were arguing this side of the question, you would quip something like "if a jet engine was giving off that that much water vapor it could not keep running".
I am just asking that people use their own abilities to reason and ask questions
