The easiest clicks to spot are the ones with an instant rise: where the spike happens between two adjacent clicks. No pickup cartridge has a top-end response higher than 44kHz, so if you sample at 96 or 88.2kHz, then no click will ever appear within a single sample: the cartridge's top end response will low-pass filter it such that the rise of the spike will take at least two samples, and that makes the click detector's job more difficult. (But since I'm not a big fan of automatic click detectors in any case, perhaps the point is moot).
