Sledding on snow, ice skating, and sliding on a playground slide are activities that work better with less friction.
Yes, traction is affected by friction. Friction between a surface and an object can either increase or decrease the traction, depending on the circumstances. More friction typically means better traction, while less friction can lead to reduced traction.
It is better to have less friction when a car tire gets stuck in mud or snow because less friction allows the tire to spin more easily and gain traction to get out of the obstacle. Increasing friction in these situations can worsen the situation by making the tire more likely to dig into the mud or snow.
Sliding friction is the force that opposes the motion of an object sliding along a surface. Rolling friction, on the other hand, is the force that opposes the motion of an object rolling over a surface. Rolling friction is generally less than sliding friction, making it easier for objects to move when rolling rather than sliding.
Yes, concrete typically has a higher coefficient of friction than asphalt due to its rougher texture. This makes concrete surfaces less slippery and provides better traction for vehicles and pedestrians.
A baseball will curve better down on a flat plain (at lower elevation above sea level). This is because the curving is caused by the ball contacting the air and pushing the ball in a particular direction. A ball's particular spin, speed, how the ball's stitches meet the air, etc will determine specifically how it will change direction when the air pushes against it. Imagine a baseball thrown in a vacuum where there is no air. The ball would not curve at all because there is no air to push on it. The ball would continue on a straight path, influenced only by gravity pulling it downwards. On a mountaintop, there is less air in a given volume of space than there is on a flat plain (at a lower elevation). Therefore, there will be less air to push on a thrown baseball when it is thrown on a mountaintop. Since there is less air to push on it, it will curve less well when thrown on the mountaintop. So it will curve better when thrown down on a flat plain.
It is better to have less friction because it will be easier to get out.

less friction then what?
no limiting friction is not less than rolling friction

It is on smooth surfaces because the amount of friction is less.
More friction, you need friction in order to get out. Place something in front or behind the tire in order to get out, even a cloth towel will help.
rolling friction is 1/100 less than spliding friction
Yes if you want better road holding. No if you want less friction and better fuel economy.
