The solves-no-problem part is simply not true.

For some people performing a double-click is hard. May it sound like a
cliché, but my mother is much happier since I switched her system to
single-click. She would be even happier if single-clicking would also
work in file dialogs and Thunderbird's attachment.

For a while I had issues with my fingers and double-clicking made it
worse. It just feels so ridiculously arduous once you got used to single
clicking.
