Default How many leaf springs straps are really needed

Hi everyone. So I have a question about leaf springs straps. My stock ones and the new dormant I bought had 3 each. I just installed a rustys 2 inch aal. They only provide 1 new one that you put on the front part of the spring. I called them and they said that is so the leafs can flex more. Iso this true and ok?
