Q.10

Because a typical 45 minute lesson, on which the earliest paradigms were based, is easily divisible by 3.

EU regulation 47.2B: ‘Any planning paradigm with four or more elements will be subject to income tax at a rate of 7%...’ (p. 739, EU Charter on Fair Planning, 2004)
It’s the smallest amount of information that can create a pattern, also known as the ‘rule of threes’ in advertising.
