Why is the escalator smooth? It doesn't look like a moving walkway, it's at an angle...

It's so you can use carts on them. They have magnets on them to lock them down

magnets?

isn't it rather the wheels of the trolley that gets trapped in the gaps between metal stripes?

Yeah definitely, magnets would probably not work as expected here

That's a tralalator, and it's angled. It is what it is.
