Why doesis the genetic code consists of tripletcodon size three, but not morerather than tripletsfour?

We know during translationThe genetic code consists of mRNA Into proteinstriplets, each of which (apart from the messagestop codons) yields an amino acid when the mRNA is coded in tripletstranslated.

But why did triplets evolve, rather than a longer or shorter codon size?

Why does the genetic code consists of triplet, but not more than triplets?

We know during translation of mRNA Into proteins the message is coded in triplets.
