Hi Theodor,

Thank you for your follow up and for attaching a related discussion in our 
thread.

As for your question on the behavior of the click_type, this other discussion 
should provide more insight and example. It states that :

"The other forum suggestions are correct: if you want a reliable count of 
impressions then you should run a report without the ClickType column.  As 
mentioned in the reporting documentation on the ClickType column: Since ads can 
serve with multiple click types displayed, impressions may be double counted 
and the totals may not be accurate. Using headline and phone calls may work for 
some cases, but could lead to double-counted impressions in others.  For 
example, if you have a Call Extension you can set up "Show the following links" 
with either:

Both my website and the phone number
Just the phone number

If you choose the first option, then your report by ClickType may include an 
impression under both Headline and Phone Call.  If you choose the second option 
then the impression may only appear under Phone Call.  Even if you work around 
this particular use case, we can't guarantee that other use cases will work or 
that this approach will work with future enhancements/changes to AdWords.  The 
safest and most reliable approach for getting Impressions is to run a report 
without ClickType."

That said, column or entity (ex. ads) behaviors are in general more of a 
Product related concern. If you wish to learn more on why some ads may serve 
with multiple click types, then I would recommend that you reach out to the 
Google Ads Product Support team instead, via this link, for further guidance.

I hope this helps.

Best regards,
