Understanding why onClick() is Called Even After onDispatchTouchEvent() Returns True

Lets say, in an Android app, we want to have the ability to temporarily and reliably ignore all user touches at any moment.

From the research I have done on stack-overflow as well as here, here, and here, the agreed-upon solution seems to be something like this:

(Code of MainActivity.java):

// returning true should mean touches are ignored/blocked
@Override
public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent pEvent) {

    if (disableTouches) {
        return true;
    } else {
        return super.dispatchTouchEvent(pEvent);
    }

}

However, when we introduce the Android Monkey Exerciser Tool and send touch events to the app at a rapid rate, it becomes apparent that pigs begin to fly at the quantum level -- we can get calls to onClick() even after/during times where "blockTouches" has been set to true.

MY QUESTION IS: Why is that? -- Is this a normal Android behavior, or did I make a mistake in my code? :)

Note: I have already ruled out the possibility of onClick() being called by user input other than touches (and therefore being uncontrolled by the onDispatchTouchEvent() method)... by adding "—-pct-touch 100" to the monkey command.

Here is the code I am using for this test:

MainActivity:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements View.OnClickListener {

    View rootView; // turns black when "touch rejection" is in progress

    View allowedButton;
    View notAllowedButton;

    // Used to decide whether to process touch events.
    // Set true temporarily when notAllowedButton is clicked.
    boolean touchRejectionAnimationInProgress = false;

    int errorCount = 0; // counting "unexpected/impossible" click calls

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        rootView = findViewById(R.id.rootView);

        allowedButton = findViewById(R.id.allowedButton);
        notAllowedButton = findViewById(R.id.notAllowedButton);

        allowedButton.setOnClickListener(this);
        notAllowedButton.setOnClickListener(this);

        allowedButton.setBackgroundColor(Color.GREEN);
        notAllowedButton.setBackgroundColor(Color.RED);

    }

    // returning true should mean touches are ignored/blocked
    @Override
    public boolean dispatchTouchEvent(MotionEvent pEvent) {

        if (touchRejectionAnimationInProgress) {
            Log.i("XXX", "touch rejected in dispatchTouchevent()");
            return true;
        } else {
            return super.dispatchTouchEvent(pEvent);
        }

    }

    @Override
    public void onClick(View viewThatWasClicked){

        Log.i("XXX", "onClick() called.  View clicked: " + viewThatWasClicked.getTag());

        //checking for unexpected/"impossible"(?) calls to this method
        if (touchRejectionAnimationInProgress) {
            Log.i("XXX!", "IMPOSSIBLE(?) call to onClick() detected.");
            errorCount ++;
            Log.i("XXX!", "Number of unexpected clicks: " + errorCount);
            return;
        } // else proceed...

        if (viewThatWasClicked == allowedButton) {
            // Irrelevant
        } else if (viewThatWasClicked == notAllowedButton) {
            // user did something that is not allowed.
            touchRejectionAnimation();
        }

    }

    // When the user clicks on something "illegal,"
    // all user input is ignored temporarily for 200 ms.
    // (arbitrary choice of duration, but smaller is better for testing)
    private void touchRejectionAnimation() {

        Log.i("XXX", "touchRejectionAnimation() called.");

        touchRejectionAnimationInProgress = true;
        rootView.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLACK);

        // for logging/debugging purposes...
        final String rejectionID = (new Random().nextInt() % 9999999) + "";
        Log.i("XXX", "rejection : " + rejectionID + " started.");

        Thread thread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                try { Thread.sleep(200); } catch (Exception e) {
                    Log.e("XXX", "exception in touchRejection() BG thread!");
                }
                runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                    @Override
                    public void run() {
                        Log.i("XXX", "rejection " + rejectionID + " ending");
                        rootView.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
                        touchRejectionAnimationInProgress = false;
                    }
                });
            }
        });

        thread.start();

    }

}
