The two big problems with both trixie and patent are firstly that the stake is the same for singles, doubles and treble, even though probabilities and edges are different, and secondly that each-way or win-only is the same across the bet.
Actually, there is a third problem. Too often punters, instead of thinking, I've found three live horses so I'll combine them in a patent, do it the wrong way round: I want to do a patent and therefore I need to find three horses. |

so your saying stake it diff with singles,doubles,trebles
1.5 pts single= 4.50 .75 pts double=2.25 .25 treble= .25 7pts |

Yes, although there are seven different bets there and ideally you should treat each one on its merits. If one of the singles is odds-on in a three-horse conditions race and another is 16/1 in a 27-runner handicap, for instance.
Unless there is a good reason -- eg generous bonuses -- start with the horses, not the bets. |

If I can not be bothered working out the merits of the particular bet I blindly do an equally divided trixie

Isn't it better to add another selection for a lucky 15 and get triple odds one winner with baldfred?

What this boils down to imo is the value inherent in multiple bets for layers.
OP doesn't give the choice to have 3 singles only - that would be the best value. The choice is between two multiple bets, one with added singles. I refer to my bible 'The Art of Legging' to resolve questions like these and that sets me firmly against multiples from a punter point of view |

only problem in refraining from multiples is the few times they all win
