That is a good point. is it very often that you gamble for a dodge when you see "Death" on the monster portrait? I would think that you'd have to be pretty hard up to take that kind of risk and would be a relatively rare occasion; rare especially when compared to accidental misclicks. I know I've died to accidental misclicks many many times, but only once or twice to gambling on dodge. And the real intent here is to prevent those "Oh wtf, I didn't mean to click on that! Stoopid trackpad!" moments.
FWIW, I've noticed several times when playing today and yesterday where a click randomly didn't go through. No big deal. Irritation over accidental clicks appears to be a much more common forum thread than "I had a click that didn't register."
I was Justin thinking out of the box, and yeah, ignoring the first click is not an absolutely perfect solution, but what is? It does address the salient issues of both sides of the discussion, in an elegant if slightly shady manner.
