I feel that treads/standard legs already have a trade-off. If you get stunned/knocked out on treads you keep standing up. This means that a lot of the time people won't notice you need help; I've seen many treaded corpses sitting out in the open and I'm sure they would've been taken to cloning if they were laying down.
But the main thing for me is in a shootout; if you get hit by a taser normally (or with robot legs) you fall down, and it's pretty common to only be stunned for a few seconds, with the rest of their shots going over you. They still need to close the distance and stun you with something to finish the job, and that gives you a chance a least to get up and do something. If you're on treads, they're going to keep firing and that stun is easily going to reach the cap and you are boned.
Maybe that's just me personally but I feel treads are worse than legs because of this.
