As seen from other answers, it changes which performance and space
usage you want go have, but there are other factors too. Replica = 3
(or larger) will be as fast when one (or more) of the replicas is
missing, but EC needs to start to do math on the data from one or more
of the checksum shards before it can return data to the client, so
they degrade differently also.
It is never as easy as "one size fits all", the tradeoffs have
multiple dimensions.
