If so, I could see that part being used for much more, in many other builds,
aside from just something that requires tread if it can clip on to many other
parts.

A continuous track requires a hollow behind the bar in the horizontal plane to
allow for idler gears or the sprocket, which would determine what you could
connect too. You could of course attach parts that don’t meet these criteria to
the ends though, like in a fork lift application. I don’t actually think you
need much help in connecting things if you have an OXO Technic hole
configuration to attach too.

Also, hard to tell on those pics but so the stud holes actually line up? Or
are they offset? For example, could you stick a 1 by 3 plate on to it
assuming the middle stud wasn’t in its way?

If the treads are five wide then standard hole positionings would seem logical
to me.
