There are some differences

First, and obviously, the serve advantage.

Second, the skill variance, since in singles, you can't weigh down the stars with neutral or dud partners.

Because of these two factors, Spec 7 singles games tend to have fewer total points than Spec 7 doubles games.

So maybe we would want to extend the singles game by going to 9.

But... with a 9-pt singles game, the dominant player has an even better chance to win. Do we want more mis-matched games?

I vote for leave it alone.
