Which sentence contains an error in the needn't-have versus didn't-need-to past-necessity contrast?

  1. I carried the spare paddle all day but never used it, so I needn't have packed it.
  2. The bridge had no toll, so we didn't need to buy a pass and bought none.
  3. The hostel had many empty beds, so I needn't have reserved one even though I made no reservation.Ճիշտ պատասխան
  4. We cooked six portions and discarded three, so we needn't have prepared so much.

Բացատրություն

The sentence about the hostel is erroneous because needn't have reserved implies a completed reservation, yet the premise says none was made. Didn't need to reserve matches an unnecessary action that was not performed.
