When I’m doing my fine-tuned editing on a podcast episode I use TwistedWave or Sound Forge Pro because they allow me to VERY QUICKLY zoom in, highlight very small things like single mouthclicks, and delete them.
When I try to make the same kind of edit in a DAW (Reaper and others) it takes forever.

The only thing I really like about editing in my DAW is that I can highlight the edit on both tracks and ripple delete so that the tracks stay aligned and I can still edit those spots where the voices overlap. Once all voice tracks are combined into one for editing on Twisted wave, it’s more difficult to edit those places where there’s a voice overlap. But I still struggle to identify my specific work flow, so who knows! I might be back to twisted wave editing again soon!
FYI, I make big edits in my DAW first and then do fine-tuning in TwistedWave.
Almost instant in Audition. If it’s between words then it’s instant inside multitrack.
If it’s embedded inside a word then I toggle to wave mode and one-click fix it with Autoheal.
That’s one of the many beauties of Audition. I don’t need to use multiple software to do non-destructive and destructive functions. And you can toggle instantly between them.
I do the same thing in the stand-alone version of Rx7.
I zoom in, highlight the mouth-click, and hit delete.
Rx7 does have the mouth-click removal plug-in which is much faster for mass removal of mouth clicks, but it is rarely as clean (no artifacts) as the zoom and delete method.
For prevention, I find a dynamic mic captures about 50% less mouth clicks (as probably expected). I have also noted that drinking water actually increases my mouth clicks.
