I'm guessing (don't have the regular one to test) that the notes are just outdated for the regular simulor. I can confirm that the DoT portion of the singularity does not proc status for the Synoid version.

In practice it won't matter much. Singularities got nerfed to auto-detonate after 8 seconds, so you'd have to keep remaking them. However, since they increased the explosion radius and moved most of the damage to the explosion alt-fire instead of the merges, it's usually better to carpet an area in a spread and detonate multiple orbs before they merge, giving you independent procs from each orb. Getting Rad/Viral procs is easy without any physical damage procs getting in the way. For Condi Overload builds, the guaranteed electric proc from the alt-fire makes it more worth it too.
