Valve's aversion of third parts

Have you ever noticed this pattern about Valve's games?
  • Team Fortress, and Team Fortress 2.
  • Dota, and Dota 2
  • Left 4 Dead, and Left 4 Dead 2.
  • Portal, and Portal 2.
  • Half-Life, and Half-Life 2.
And when they wanted to make a continuation to that last one, did they go with 3? Of course not. They made Half-Life 2: Episode 1, and Half-Life 2: Episode 2.

If they ever make a continuation to the series, I bet it will be named Half-Life 2: Episode 2: Part 2. And it will run on Source Engine 2, of course.
