Perhaps we could make adding a node just a single click, but only keep the node if they attach it somewhere or label it. The 'cursor: crosshair' css property is a pretty clear signifier that something will happen when you click
Related: we don't have a signifier for deleting edges (currently you "reconnect" the edge to delete). This is actually a bigger issue, because it's significantly less discoverable than "double click to add node".
What we really should do is put the app in front of completely new users and ask them to perform actions (e.g. "delete a node"). Then record anything they have trouble with, and what they expected their failed actions to do.
It's currently not immediately clear that one adds nodes by double clicking. A signifier should be added to improve initial UX. The ideal solution would include a way for tablet users to add nodes (since double click is not something you can do on there). Maybe a plus sign inside a circle in the upper right hand corner?
