As the question says: why not 1? Why not 3+? Is there a reason most companies keep it at 2?
I always thought it was to sell more bottles but also to satisfy people’s desire to always have more than one without constant lawsuits from overeaters.

It’s easier to adjust up, than it is to adjust down.
If you have 50% of a recommended adult dosage per gummy, you take two. That 50% is probably also the recommended kid dosage, so you can give your kid one gummy, and yourself take two, and it would have a roughly similar effect.
Now, let’s say each gummy has 100% of a recommended dosage: Now, you have to cut it in half to give it to a kid, and that could be a problem for a few reasons, the first one is that you now have to contend with how the parents would use that. There is the “give a full one, but give them every other day instead”, which could lead to kidney problems for the kid. There is the parents that will cut a gummy in half, and split it between their kids, but the vitamins might not be spread evenly enough in the gummy, so one kid could be getting nearly none of one they need, and the other far more of that specific one. . . And then you have those who will not read the label, assume it’s all the same as the other medication, and chow down two of them at a time, leading to progressively worse kidney issues.
Plus, some people like flavor of those gummies, so I guess that is also a point.
