What does the third number mean in the new power phase nomenclature?

No, it's the VDD_MISC rail. This powers a couple of the supporting voltages like VDDG.

This was never the case, the second number never referred to RAM (OK, not never, there's a handful of primarily ASRock boards that did that, though they always listed that it was the memory phase). The exact thing it referred to depended on the platform, though it's usually something like SOC voltage on AMD platforms or VCCSA on Intel platforms. If you go digging for long enough you can find boards with 4 advertised values, VCore+VCCSA+VCCIO+iGPU.
On AM5 they are VCore+SOC+VDD_MISC.
