It actually does from my expierence. I think its related to the scv attack animation and its acceleration. I used to think it was just a myth but I started rapidly clicking attack on enemy probes/drones to deal with the acceleration issues(it 100% helps with that..it makes it much much harder for an enemy probe or drone to micro kill your scv) and there seemed to be a noticeable difference. I was killing a lot more drones/probes than before even at C level which I would attribute to the change in the amount of time it takes for their probe/drone to die. The increase is very slight but definitely noticeable. I could be wrong but I doubt it

That's not from faster attacking, that's just reducing the time it takes for you scv to get to the enemy unit. You're essentially preventing your scv from decelerating after it attacks. The attack is just as fast as before, there's just less pause in between as your slow scv tries to chase after the drone/probe. If you want to test out the actual attack speed, have it attack a building with spamming right click, it's the same speed as a normal a move'd scv.
