Does the following excerpt from the ELisp manual help you understand
the issue?
Before the double-click or double-drag event, Emacs generates a
"double-down" event when the user presses the button down for the
second time. Its event type contains `double-down' instead of just
`down'. If a double-down event has no binding, Emacs looks for an
alternate binding as if the event were an ordinary button-down event.
If it finds no binding that way either, the double-down event is
ignored.
To summarize, when you click a button and then press it again right
away, Emacs generates a down event and a click event for the first
click, a double-down event when you press the button again, and finally
either a double-click or a double-drag event.
