Things small enough to fit in 1- or 2-cup containers are likely to be eaten by the end of the day and not need storing, or they're too small to make a full serving of any part of future meals. A handful of things you'd want to store, like leftover tomato paste or applesauce, would naturally fit in a 2-cup container. Calorie-dense snacks like nuts or dried fruit would also fit, but plastic or silicone bags are better for those.
Glass containers start to get more useful at 3 cups, but then there's the question of the benefit of a 3-cup container vs a 4-cup one. Typical recipe portions mean you'll need a 4-cup container much more often than the 3-cup, and they barely take up any more cabinet space.
Also, personally, I don't like rectangular containers. With few exceptions, like if you want to bake lasagna in a rectangular container and then store it in that shape, round containers work better or just as well. The more shapes you have the more awkward the containers will be to stack and store, and the more lids you'll have that aren't interchangeable.
I suggest buying multipacks of single sizes. To me the best starter arrangement for a single person needing prep and/or leftover storage for 2-3 meals is a set of two 2-cups, three 4-cups, and three 7-cups. That's a good balance.
Plastic lids aren't great, but they're cheap and widely available. It's harder to find better lids, like the kind Pyrex recently discontinued that combine glass and silicone. You can still get those, but from what I can tell it's only possible to find them in a couple of costly multipacks that have the same limitations as this one. Maybe some knock-offs exist.
