Yes, that's what surprised me. Something to do with mission profile, endurance or speed, I suppose? Our friend @Penguin may help us out in this regard.
The warload would be 2x4. No reason it can't carry fewer. I see frigates that have 2x4 Harpoon sail with 2x0 or 2x1 on the rack during peacetime. You don't want to unnecessarily haul expensive missiles around in a corrosive environment ;-)

Here's one in the Netherlands, on its way to the shipbreaker... sad sight
(these are early 1980s ships, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bremen-class_frigate#Ships).

Too bad, some Dutch frigates of the Kortenaer class have been turned into megayachts
