A lot of pilots use the double-click of the PTT as an acknowledgement
to a transmission that didn't need to be acknowledged. It is
primarily used as a courtesy to the controller to let them know that
you heard their last transmission - even if a reply wasn't required.

I was taught this, too. Two clicks in response to a transmission not
requiring a reply, such as "Have a good flight" offered by Clearance
Delivery after reading back a clearance, or "Winds 250, 25 gusting to 38"
volunteered by tower (without being asked) when on final.
