Narrower track-
pro: allows more slender bodywork
con: less stability. You especially want the heavy end of the vehicle to have the wider track for better stability.
Rear drive wheel on tadpole trike:
pro: simplicity; perhaps lighter?
con: less traction. Yes, traction is better when the heavy end of the vehicle has the drive wheels. You do NOT want the single wheel end of a trike to be the heavy end. However if it is a fair weather, low power vehicle traction isn't as much a factor.
