If B requires A does not necessarily mean A causes B.  If I am required to have my car keys on me to drive my car, having my car keys on me does not mean that I am driving my car.  I can have my keys and be eating dinner at home or riding a bike in the park.  A double move requires you take two of the same move actions in a turn.  But nowhere does it say that taking two of the same move actions in a turn is automatically a double move.  If you choose to not double move, you can't end one action in an ally's square, you can't normally shift into difficult terrain, etc.  I could still Shift - Shift across clear terrain with two separate actions.Take a step back and look at a more concrete example.  Lets say I have three actions in a turn: One that takes no real time (minor), and two that take 3 seconds each (move and standard). I draw my dagger (minor).  If  I then take one of my 3 second actions and hustle, moving 6 squares, I make lots of noise and can't easily make the required effort to stealthily move.  I then take 3 seconds to move 2 squares, slowing myself down quite a bit, moving quietly, taking as much cover as I possibly can.  Doesn't it make sense that way?
