I got that right then.
In my head axial stiffness depends on that one angle (can be seen in my awesome drawing) which can only be changed by hub width or rim depth.

If you finish your sketch, you'll see that it is also changed slightly by the rotational offset between the two ends of the spoke, i.e. the number of crossings in a conventional build.

Now I see what you're saying

In the great scheme of things, the difference between 2X and 3X 28H wheels is swamped by other factors, so it's not worth getting hung up about

I'll go with this then :P 3x it is, thanks!
