no reason they couldnt make a mold with three side parts rather than two.
It just wasnt done often because in most cases it would be inefficient.
They probably had some reason for it though.

Wasn't that type of mold used mostly with ornamental type bottles/vases?

You see it in bottles with a lot of surface variation somtimes. I think it was easier to release the item from the mold.
