>Trolley pole operation does not require wire switches at track switches if the pole has a wheel rather than a shoe.

Not true. With no wire frogs, a pole will dewire regardless of whether it has a wheel or shoe.

There are differences between wire frogs designed for shoes and those designed for wheels. As I recall, you can use a wheel in a shoe frog, but not a shoe in a wheel frog.
