Now as a single tapper, I've done full alternation just for fun for part of maps, and it doesn't make me play terrible, in fact I play up to 90% as good as single tapping.
Aside from alternating low BPM streams, would doing full alternate on entire maps helps finger control as well?
Also, when you do often happen to do alternations instead?

That kind of stuff I can hardly singletap but I find it unnecessarily exhausting.

Sliders immediately after eachother

Having changed from full-alternate to single-tap really early (6 months in), I had to get this down exactly to break certain habits.

If it plays like a stream (close together, 1/4 timing between starts/ends of sliders and notes): Full-alternate it (length of slider does not matter)
If there is an obvious jump between streams that end on a 1/4 slider, restart on main finger.

Single-tap all jumps/singles and 1/2 sliders that play as such (not connected to a stream).
Alternate the next note following a fast repeat slider.

Practice Lists (pretty old now):
Jumps | Short Streams | Single-Tap | Streams | Reading (Unfinished. ETA: Unknown)

Full alternate? Never. I'll alternate singles past 220 though.

There's a difference between mashing and alternating, friend.

Also to answer the question, when I'm really bored, or I just want to be safe if its a bunch of sliders and what not.

Same-beat slider jumps.
Same-beat slider->single jumps.
Sometimes when the BPM is like 300+.
