Pluglug:

I have a basic question - what’s the difference between Press and Click?

When we press any button there are 2 actions: down(A) and up(B).
So if we assign Press event to a hotkey then it’ll start a command immediately as we down(A) the button. With Click it will start a command only after we release the button (A+B)

Pluglug:

we’d need to explain clear differences and benefits for doing so.

In short there is a peculiarity in Blender that if a hotkey has Press event then it blocks other combinations with this hotkey. But let me prepare a more detailed explanation with examples regarding it
