But am I the only one who hears the vocals as the equivalent to Christine's Halloween costume?

I disagree. It belonged on the album as much as the Electric version of SWS (which I also know you don't believe hung with the other material). I think the addition of those two songs would have given a more complex and rounded perspective on the central existential themes (longing and love) of the album, proving that such emotions are not only communicated in the standard "serious" tone represented by the rest of the album. That's the great truth of Holiday Road (which is, Beach Boys-style, the definitive Myth of a common experience and a common desire). Lindsey's pomo project has been to show how a variety of pop codes can express his individual psychological and spiritual condition.
