Couldn't you or Mary just do three quick patterns (full-stop) and be legal

Sure, but that would be terribly impractical.

Do you think some FAA cop is going to be waiting for you to make sure
you had 3 night landings in the last 90 days?

Just frigging fly home at night and be done with it. Big deal.
