Currently in Gutenberg, you can drag an image on top of an existing Image block, which will upload the new image and replace the current one. The drop zone covers the full area of the block and is indicated by a blue overlay color with a CTA. The drop zone looks exactly the same on the Gallery block but instead of replacing, the new image is added to the gallery.
Issue #32819 proposes making both of these interactions available for the Image block within a single drag motion. Perhaps the same behavior could be extended to the Gallery block:
gallery-add-replace.mp4
This would allow a user to go seamlessly from one image to two images, and from two images to three images, using the exact same interaction pattern. This could be a part of ongoing efforts to unify the Image block and Gallery block more closely.
