shits fucking random bro, but I bet the layers are just protection. An animal could take a bite from a bulb and it'tll still sprout.

They are basically modified thick leaves hence the layers as each individual layer is individual leaf.

as others have said they're layered, modified leaves that function as starch storage. The layers are advantageous because they offer redundancy and the ability to compartmentalize disease and rot.
