from what I can tell $mp_click events are connected to the heatmap functionality https://docs.mixpanel.com/docs/session-replay/heatmaps or autocapture https://docs.mixpanel.com/docs/tracking-methods/autocapture so if these events bother you you'll have to turn off either heatmaps or autocapture, whichever you're using

I doubt it's documented, but they're built-in events that are generally automatically generated by the library; I bet you can disable their firing by using a setting when you load the library itself, like described in here https://docs.mixpanel.com/docs/tracking-methods/sdks/javascript

ok done

awesome, thanks for looking into this!

they are essentially the same event sent twice, but on occasion they may have a minor custom property be different; if a deletion query used that property, would that leave behind events with the same insert_id, event name and timestamp, but a different value for that property?

you might want to check the min and max timestamps on the returned events, I believe the response gets truncated by datetime, so you'll see that you requested events ending at 5pm but you only got events up to 3pm or whatever
