Among several posts mentioning only primes is three lenses: a wide, a
standard and a tele. Specific focal lengths of the wide and tele depending
on what the photog has and what/how the photog shoots. Seems to confirm
the same holds true now as at the zenith of RF's made from brass, glass and
steel. General photogs could do their work very well with just three
lenses in the focal length ranges mentioned, and a little "shoe leather
zoom" (with exceptions for truly "exotic" photography).
