I mean what’s the benefit of this design for rough Terrian. Obviously I read the article.

  As with any tracked vehicle: Larger, flat surface area touching the ground results in better grip on soft ground and is less prone to sinking in. Small track-sections like here obviously aren't as good at that as full, tank-style treads, but easier to add to a wheeled vehicle and allow normal steering. There's all kinds of companies making conversion kits to such (non-shape-shifting) small tracks for trucks and SUVs, not sure if there's a military example of that exact style.
