There’s a general rule in writing that if you don’t know how many items to put in a list, you use three. So if you’re giving examples and you don’t know how many to use, use three. Don’t know if that helps, but it’s the main heuristic I know that’s actually concrete.

I’m not sure I follow. Could you give a couple more examples of when to use this heuristic?
