"single click to hide comment" [Enabled]

I absolutely cannot stand this behavior, if I accidentally tap instead of scroll then comment trees will expand/collapse and then I feel lost. Jerboa has this behavior and it was the most annoying thing about it when I used it, I'd say it was close to making me feel nauseous at times.

But hey, that's the great thing about Sync being so customizable, you can choose whatever behavior you prefer!
