I'm behind but I don't see how that gains anything in efficiency.
Whether you close one or several apps, a three-finger swipe up closes them
without any added steps.

Subject: App Switcher & Closing Running Apps
I'm using iOS 7.1.2 (worked this way in all versions of 7?); possibly in
prior iOS versions as well, but I just stumbled on this in 7.
When I focus on a running app, I'm informed to do a 3-finger swipe up to
close the app -- that works fine, but I've discovered a much more efficient
method to close an app if there are a number of open apps you may wish to
close at that time.
Here's how to close a number of running apps quite efficiently:
- press the HOME button twice to launch app switcher
- focus on any given app you wish to close
- execute a one-finger swipe down (should change action from default to
close)
- do a one-finger double tap to close this app
- to close additional apps, simply focus on said app and do the one-finger
double tap
It seems that the one-finger swipe down changes the action for all apps from
default (open) to close so do not tap an app you want to continue having
open.
