I've found, at least on my LISTSERV, that a subscriber has to exceed the
Max() number in order to be deleted. Although I've never tried to confirm
that this is normal LISTSERV behavior.

If you see someone get to three without being deleted, then you've got a
case of an address generating errors that's not subscribed, either
because of forwarding or local machine differences.
