The solution is not specific to using only three curves. About
different number of cross-sections for each loft:

In this particular example you want to place points on curves using
the length component with different distances between them (if you
want the same distance, you can use the divide by length component
which already outputs the correct tree structure). You also want the
list of lengths the same for every curve, but since the curves have
different lengths, some of the lengths in the "list of lengths" will
overshoot the curve. Fortunately, in this cases a "null" value is
returned. This allows to order the list nicely using the previous
method (hopefully, this was not accidental). Using the "list length"
component allows to change the number of curves or the number of
lengths without changing anything or adding components. Sorry, i think
i explained myself really poorly. Also, maybe i didn't understood
correctly what you are trying to achieve.
