Strange, working here.
I am using the same version of CLIClick and Sierra.
I generally need to use a time of 1 second or 1000 milliseconds to see results.
Maybe the 500 is too short.

Here is a working example of moving an icon on the Desktop from one location to
another.

tell application "System Events"
        tell process "Finder"
                set frontmost to true
                delay 0.5
                keystroke "h" using {command down, option down} -- Hide Others
command
                my dragAndDropMouse(1840, 53, 100, 100, 1000)
        end tell
end tell

on dragAndDropMouse(startPointX, startPointY, endPointX, endPointY, delayTime)
        set scriptContent to "usr/local/bin/cliclick dd:" & startPointX & "," &
startPointY & space & "w:" & delayTime & space & "du:" & endPointX & "," &
endPointY & space & "w:" & delayTime
        do shell script scriptContent
end dragAndDropMouse
