Purpose of triangular placement of cones/spikes?

What is the idea behind placing cones or spikes in a triangular configuration rather than at four corners? For instance, under a cdp you usually see one in front and two in the rear corners (or vice versa).
Is it that the weight of the component or speaker becomes greater per point and for that reason helps to "drain" the component of resonance more efficiently?
Some other reason?
Thanks, Jb3

Unfortunately, perhaps - size, shape, material of cones, location of component in room (rack vs floor), vibration environment (urban, suburban, country) are all part of the puzzle, IMO.
