Default Transplanting question

My seedlings are just about at the first true leaves stage. Is there any reason not to transplant them into the containers they'll remain in until planting out in the garden--in my case 18oz red party cups with drainage holes-- 3 1/2" diameter, 4 1/2" deep? Put differently, is there any benefit to two transplantings (first into a smaller pot, then the 18oz cups) before final setting out? What's the best practice here?

TIA,
Gary
