Default solitary otocinclus?

It seems to be universally declared that one should not keep a single otocinclus, but rather a group of them. My local fish store person recently suggested a fish group for my 4 gallon nano tank, and this group included one otocinclus. I have been told my acquaintances that when they had only one otocinclus that fish died in a few months and they attribute this directly to its being kept solitary. What are y'all's thoughts and experiences? Thanks, g
