Normally odd bars are considered odd bars when they are incomplete or forked. Those with dots are considered unclean. Although its not wrong to consider 3 bars odd bars, i dun think anyone consider them as such.

I wonder who said it or how it got established that the four bar pattern is somehow the standard and the three bar or three/four bar split is oddball...Both patterns are just about the same in terms which is more plentiful.

In south east Asia 3bars/odd bar/4bar are all very common. They are breeding 3bars and from there many odd bars are also created. The reason is to get as close to an st as possible since ST are no longer easily available. Clean 3 bars are worth much more then 4 bars in SEA market. Its marketing by farms, as odd bars are considered failures from trying to breed 3 bars.
