The question is what do you want a third button for? Making a third button standard on the Amiga would require Commodore to completely rethink the user-interface. What would that third button do? The only thing it can do now is sit there and wait for you to run X windows. Most people don't want X windows and would only be confused by extra buttons. More is not always better.
