I know for example that in the US you can be trained on all types at once. I had a friend at AA who was trained to operate the FK100, B727, B737, B757, B767 and B777.
So it doesn't always hold true that the three type rules is law.

Correct. I do not know how the situation is in Italy at the moment but I remeber being certified on the A320/321 (considered one type), the A330, the B767 and the B777 all at once.

In the UK some operators have changed the rules for example when I joined FCA we were trained on the B757, B767 and A320/321. A few months later they changed the rule as they considered the A321 doors2&3 being different so you would either be on the A320 or the A321.
I got the A320, quit the A321 and was ever so happy
