When there is no activity in a GIF there is still a new frame generated every 1/framerate seconds. At the default recording of 15 FPS this means that a new frame is generated and stored in the file every 6/100 or 7/100 of a second. If nothing changed between the two frames, it is more efficient to extend the duration of the first frame and drop the second. This is what ffmpeg's mpdecimate filter does.
