I do agree that 1,2,3 is still better than 1 button spam of the same spell/skill, but it's just barely above it.
Well, that's probably a legacy oversight at this point, since GNB made do with a single button for continuation. Then again, SE does seem to be concerned about the appearance of not having too small of a hotbar just as much as skill bloat.
