In my reading it very clearly confirms the opposite.

The quoted portion from Mark refers to the relatively rare edge case in which one might want to process both single- and double-clicks in a control.

In such a case the OS-provided messages are working as designed, LC's support of those messages is fine, and any delay has been introduced by the scripter attempting a dual interaction mode for a single control.

Thus far we haven't seen anything in this discussion or anyone else's direct experience suggesting that the doubleClickInterval has any effect on single clicks.

For the reasons I noted in my earlier post, you may want to review your libraries for where that's happening. And since you're reducing the doubleClickInterval to a value below what the user expects, you might consider removing that dual model altogether and finding a different means of delivering the options you're seeking to provide for the user.
