Welcome to the forum.

There is no click on half press. There is no click on full press.

With an index finger, you press the shutter-release button half way down -- a spring mechanism offers some resistance to provide tactile feedback.

You overcome the resistance and press the shutter-release button all the way down -- you cannot push any deeper, so you remove your finger to let the button return to its at-rest position.

The "click" you hear when the shutter is released is simulated and played by firmware.

Um... no. There is very definitely a physical switch there at the bottom of the travel. And the shutter sound is made by the actual shutter firing.
