I remember 3 different BPSloaders - 3-card, 7-card, and 12-card versions.
There very well could have been a 6-card loader, too.
I may have had a brain check. I thought it was 6, but it must have been 7.
3 seems like too few. And it was all too many decades ago.

I remember seeing a loader that consisted of only two cards, once. The
second card was a channel program that read length/address information
into a third CCW, ran it and TIC'd back to the beginning again.
