Honest question: is there a reason to not use screws all around? Are

My AI is a rivet freak. He loves rivets. Personally, I would have been
inclined to use the screws, cost be dammed, in the event I ever have
to replace the seat rail again. AFIK, Accepted Practices specifically says
that it is ok to use a fastener inplace of a rivet.
