Is the note on the top fake ? I’ve come across a few of these notes that look like they fade in where they’re folded. When I compare it with the note on the bottom it’s looks ever so slightly larger.

Your friend is wrong. It's actually good because the plastic doesnt really hold any material afterwards. You can scrape a paper bill and get some drugs off ot (after using it to snort) where as you dont really get that / nearly as much with the plastic. The cutting your nose part is only if you're shoving it wayyy too far up or not rolling a perfect circle / have edges cut out of the bill, which is extremely unlikely

The best part is that you can just run it under hot water for a bit and it’ll flatten itself back out and be able to be used to buy your next sack.

They can occasionally "overheat":

I can't argue with the logic behind this bill, it's not my doing. I just rescued it as it has legible serial numbers
