One can always create a bezier curve for $n, n >= 2  $ points having degree of 
curve  $n-1$. So If there are 3 points, one can draw Bezier curve of degree 
2.
And for 2 points bezier curve of degree 1 i.e. line.

Only things is that \psbezier curve command is so defined that it requires 4 
points. Bezier curve for four points is always smooth i.e.  at least $C^1$ 
curve. Therefore it is obvious to design bezier curve command for 4 points.
And trick to obtain curve for  lesser number of point is, you use same command 
with repetition of end points, so effectively, there should be 4 points and 
since end points are repeating figure remains unaffected.
