Default Vertical Grab Bar: Only Two Screws?

Just watched a vid of the process and they only used a single screw at
each end of the bar.

On one hand, it makes sense:

- With two holes exactly centered on the stud,
the hole that is under the bar is inaccessible,
leaving only the "Outside" hole.

- Offsetting the holes enough that both a top
and bottom hole are accessible seems like it is
flirting with screwing into one or both
edges of the underlying stud.


On the other hand.... just 2 screws ????

Yeah, each screw is 2" long... but still...

Can somebody make me feel better about this?
