"Two thin coats" has always been safety-net advice for people new to painting. It's good advice in that it drills home the idea that paint shouldn't be expected to create a solid color in one coat and layers must be built up. Without getting into this level of complexity. That said, I think the foundation that most painters learn only through direct experience, is that there is no specific formula to thinning paint. You just develop an innate awareness of how every specific paint (which means every color, from every manufacturer) will behave depending on its current viscosity. An eye for how the paint is going to settle, evaporate, and cure.

great tutorial! It clarified a lot for me. And I agree, it can be really confusing for a beginner
