There's N layers too.
In short, the number of layers is the same parameter as the number of turns on an inductor: the field is the same in the material, you're just matching it to a different ratio of circuit V/I.
That electrolytics do CV is remarkable, and rather useful to know, if you need to store a lot of energy quickly.
It could be that ceramics go this way as well, or they might plausibly be worse (going the other way) -- because ferroelectricity only works down to so-and-so size scales (this being the limiting factor in FeRAM, which only works down to ~100nm processes, IIRC).
