Ability to generate candidate paths in continuous search space is a bit more general than pruning prebuilt search tree.

Search tree is an approximation of continuous search problems and needs to be built by someone. This approach builds its own search tree.

It also paves the way to algorithms which can solve problems by repurposing available actions for achieving unintended goals, and by creating new high-level actions from low-level ones.

That is solving problems creatively.
