No, a 3 pointed star has 6 sides. You can remove the input checking and
try:
(star 3 30 5 'outline 'red)
Or just think of the Mercedes-Benz logo -- it's a three pointed star.

That would be fine with me, but like I said, I think the concept of
3-pointed star is completely sensible.
Also, I think this is a bug:
(image-width (star 4 30 5 'outline 'red))
=> 62
I expected 60, analogous to:
(image-width (circle 30 'outline 'red))
=> 60
