Why aren’t there words with triple consecutive letters

We have words with 2 consecutive letters like book, deep, wall, etc. Why aren’t there words with 3 consecutive letters, let’s say boook, deeep, etc. Why is 2 the maximum?

As a german I love to throw out my favorite german word for that occasion: “Teeei”. Yes, that’s a real, formal word. It means “tea egg”, ie: the reusable container you use to put loose tea leaves into hot water.

But as crazy as german is with certain words, even we often write it as Tee-Ei, to be easier to parse mentally.
