Not only that, there are some really useful properties of the double entry system: https://arxiv.org/abs/1407.1898 That's defining a group called the Pacioli Group. One thing that is relatively easy to do with this group is to quickly verify consistency in the transactions. That is something you lose with a single-entry system.
