Re Double Clicking to open - When you only have one version of Revit installed and don't use worksharing it's not a big deal. It works.
As for separate sessions, if double clicking is no big deal then multiple sessions is also no big deal unless you intend to use copy/paste clipboard features. That's also a Windows toolset and requires the same session.
However as soon as we have more than one version (and in the past more than one discipline version) we realized/learned very quickly that double clicking was a time waster. Windows opens the last installed version of Revit regardless of the actual version of the Revit file because double click to open is a Windows feature (borrowed from the early Apple/Mac computers).
When worksharing is enabled then you run the risk of open the central file instead of creating a local and you don't get the option to choose which worksets to close/open first.
The only file type I double click on these days is PDF.
