That wasn’t the question.
As opposed to just increasing text size? I suppose if someone has three fingers but cannot spread two of them in order to zoom, then yeah it makes sense. Quite a niche scenario.

Increasing text size doesn't work with images (or text in an image).
Also, the 3-finger double tap is faster than a pinch to zoom, and the gesture can be easier for people with limited mobility (e.g. arthritis).
Apple doesn't consider these use cases niche because they have more data than you do about the general population – specifically customers who use their products.

That is most likely the optimal shortcut they could use. It isn’t intended for three fingered people. Most other double taps/clicks are reserved for other functions. For example, activating Apple Pay takes two clicks of the power button, but it wasn’t invented for people who can only click it twice. The usage of three fingers is to prevent people accidentally activating it with two fingers.
