No, it's because 4 is D&D adventures recommended party size.
Not a tabletop player or regular visitor of the genre, but this weak and tiny setup is the recommended size?
Sounds weak and unambitious not gonna lie.
To be fair, when talking about PnP you have to take into consideration bodies round a table. Designing a game where the recommended number is more than 4-5 players is a tricky sell. Most board games go for 4 as a general number with some looking at optional 5 or 6, but inherently the design will be aimed at the 4 mark.
That said I want 5 or 6 here
