Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 here's the potentially ugly use-case...

 first:

 {{{
 add_user_meta($user_id, 'foo', 'bar', false);
 var_dump(get_user_meta($user_id, 'foo')); // array(0=>'bar')
 }}}

 then:

 {{{
 $user = new WP_User($user_id);
 var_dump($user->foo); // 'bar'
 }}}

 the only workaround I can think of is to store the $single status into the
 user_meta table.
