The top hinge screws want to pull out of the door and frame due to the cantilevered centre of gravity of the door. At the bottom hinge the opposite happens and the screws are not in tension because the lower part of the door tends to "push" towards the frame.
It is therefore common practice to fit two upper hinges close to one another near the top of the door and have the bottom hinge by itself near the bottom of the door. (All the above assuming the door is rigid and have some weight that cannot be negligible).
A third hinge fitted midpoint between a top and a bottom hinges serves no purpose other than evenly supporting a thin flexible door against wind etc.
