To be pedantic (always a good thing where computers are involved) I
think there are five paths.  If the router connected to the WAN is A
and the others are B and C, and the client is X then the routes are
X -> A -> WAN
X -> B -> A -> WAN
X -> C -> A -> WAN
X -> B -> C -> A -> WAN
X -> C -> B -> A -> WAN

None of which contradicts your main point that you need a good number
to make an effective mesh.
