Rule of three is a plot device used in literature and storytelling for thousands of years. TSR might have named it but they certainly not invented it... Saying that it is part of product identity is like saying that wizards are product identity and no one can use wizards except them.
Doesn't really matter if it's a real-world concept or not. Associating it with the demodands is too close to what TSR/WotC did in Planescape. We'll be finding a different niche and theme for demodands as a result.
If we were to apply this theme to say a tripartate race of giant ant creatures, or three different kinds of specialized dragons, or pretty much anything other than demodands... that'd be a different story.
