I remember, in traditional harmony, you are not supposed to double the
3rd, but I don't remember what is the reason for this.

The traditional reason is that the color of the third is so strong that
doubling it creates an ugly balance. On the other hand, if you're
Stravinsky writing the opening chord of "Symphony of Psalms", you can thumb
your nose at traditional reasons. :)
