Default I agree,

The different wear rates will compensate. The track just meshes with more (or fewer) teeth depending on the amount of wear.

Jeff Plowmans original Kiwi Armour book mentions how much had to be machined off each tooth to match the american track links. From memory it was not much at all.

To me the best indication of wear is the angle the track sits at on the sprocket when you look from the rear. Having sufficient metal around the pin holes is the critical factor!
