Bigger screws will definately be stronger, but some other motor mount(like the Tekno's) uses all four 3mm screws to hold the motor in place, it feels really tough.

I personally think all motors should use 4mm screws or at least have the option (have both 3 & 4mm holes on the motor). I think 3mm is a carryover from the past and with todays larger more powerful motors 4mm is the new standard. Just like 1/8 motor shafts, we soon found out 5mm was the way to go.
