a strut brace is a strut brace. the space between struts don't work so hard
in what it is better?

Not true. Alot of strut braces are made of different mareials and their charactoristics vary in strength and tensile flex.
Where as a 2 pont strut brace signicantly strengthens and limits flex between your two top mounts at doesnt redcuce twist in the engine bay like a 3 point.
A good strut brace can transfer enough force to press down in the opposite shock absorber when cornering hard. If your brace is not made strong enough and not rigid enough, energy is lost via flex or it'll do nothing.

The horizontal brace on ours is located centre between the braces not on the top or bottom edge of the top mounts offering the strongest and most direct line of support.

You only have one hood strut on your car? o.O

Yes because I have a carbon fibre hood which is very light and two gas struts is too much of an overkill.
