CSS grid-template-column - avoid single column in new row

I use css grid to resize the columns and move them to new rows when they don't fit. Here is the code that explains everything:

.tiles-container {
  display: grid;
  grid-gap: 6rem;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(min(220px, 100%), 2fr));
}

a {
  background: red;
  height: 100px;
}
<div class="tiles-container">
  <a></a>
  <a></a>
  <a></a>
  <a></a>
</div>

grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(min(220px, 100%), 2fr));

Now, what I want to avoid is moving only one (single) column to a new row. Instead, it collapses earlier and moves the 2 columns together.

To explain it more intuitively, this is acceptable:

█ █ █ █

Also:

█ █ █

██

Also:

██

██

This is unacceptable:

█ █ █

I want to avoid unnecessary media queries here. This is my code: https://jsfiddle.net/tucado/0czokyxa/3/

    If anyone encounters the same problem, here is the solution: https://jsfiddle.net/tucado/0czokyxa/5/

    and CSS:

    .tiles-container {
        /* first breakpoint*/
        --w1:1200px;
        --n:6;
        /* second breakpoint*/
        --w2:800px;
        --m:4;
        /* third breakpoint*/
        --w3:400px;
        --p:2;
    
        display:grid;
        grid-template-columns:
          repeat(auto-fill,
            minmax(clamp(clamp(clamp(  
                  100%/(var(--n) + 1) + 0.1%,
                    (var(--w1) - 100%)*1000,
                  100%/(var(--m) + 1) + 0.1%), 
                    (var(--w2) - 100%)*1000,
                  100%/(var(--p) + 1) + 0.1%), 
                    (var(--w3) - 100%)*1000,
                  100%), 1fr));
        gap:10px;
        border:1px solid;
        overflow:hidden;
        margin:5px;
        resize:horizontal;
    
    
      }
    
      .tiles-container > a {
        height:100px;
        background:red;
      }

    Thank you @Temani-Afif
