It can also be said that the hybridization is caused by the type, number and arrangement of the binding partners. There is not really cause and effect, it has to fit, both spatially and energetically.

s2 is a very bad example, because there is only a s-orbital in the valence bowl. sp, sp2 and sp3 are actually known and s2 should not happen at all.
