If you are not familiar with smart contracts, yea, it can be seen as a very smart idea. But there are dozens of coins in the market that can replace ETH. So, the ERC-20 is good, but it can easily replace.

ERC20 i think that is not a unique token, because erc20 blockchain or Ethereum blockchain is used so much many time and have many token with that blockchain.
so, if this is a unique token, i said is not because it is too much.
bue ERC20 is not bad blockchain and good too to use that blockchain platform.

Erc20 is a unique token that are control and run in ETH blockchain with its smart contract .

It can be store in their unique wallet that are compatible with erc20 , so you need to be very careful when sending or receiving any token from that erc20 has any mistake regard the wallet will lead to lost of your token.

If I got you well then I'd say that every thing ran on the blockchain technology is very much traceable and transparent and ERC-20 token is one or those ran in the blockchain technology so I would not say it is unique in terms of being a coin in the cryptocurrency world

Using Ethereum base doesn't mean all the ERC-20 tokens are copy-paste products as far as I know.

Is an ERC-20 tokens a unique unit, that you can trace and that its possessor could specifically choose to transfer?

Yes, every tokens are decided by it's unique contract address. They behave according to their individual rules but for transactions, require Ethereum as gas for traveling in the block chain.
Ethereum and ERC transactions are not anonymous and could be tracked from originator to receiver

I do not fully understand your question, but I think yes, ERC-20 tokens are a unique unit. What made you doubt it? How did you come to this question?
