Summary 💡
If you look at any of the speeddial demos, you can see that if you move your mouse over the button and click, the menu opens partially then closes. This is pretty unintuitive. Clearly anyone hovering over the icon and clicking immediately expects to open the speeddial on click, not cancel opening the speed dial. I recommend adding functionality that ignores clicks until the menu has completely opened.
Examples 🌈
No response
Motivation 🔦
When trying the component out for the first time, I tried to click on it, which immediately closed the menu. It seems there are edge cases that could be improved without any significant downside.

Research direction
Start with the SpeedDial demos linked in the issue and reproduce the behavior by hovering, then clicking while the menu is opening. Trace the SpeedDial component's open and close interaction and its existing tests; done means an immediate click opens the menu instead of cancelling the opening, with existing behavior preserved.
