When most end users play mono like that the volume will be dominant mostly in the left sided speakers, it's never truly even to my ears and it sounds hollow as hell anyway. Especially in cheap speakers like many end users have. When I film with a mono mic I always fill both my audio channels to simulate stereo. It sounds completely different and 100% better, so no use to try and shrink the file a little extra at the expense of the overall sound quality in my humble opinion.
