Inkscape triggers a layer rename (F2) for instance. opening the attribute table for massive table is probably something you don't want to happen to easily. Not sure you will get a consensus for the default action, but having settings for this makes sense to me.

FYI: in Settings/Canvas & Legend, you can set yourself what the Double-click action is:
- Open layer properties
- Open attribute table
- Open layer styling dock

So you can set it to the second option to have your preference?
