How drag clicking registers
As your finger drags across the button, friction causes the switch to bounce open and closed rapidly, and the browser counts each of those as a click. That's why a single drag can rack up dozens of clicks at once.
Reading the result
A 5-second window suits drag clicking, since it's about short explosive bursts rather than sustained rhythm. Expect numbers to vary a lot between attempts and between mice — that's the nature of the technique.
