What wheel friction? In this scenario there's less friction than they'd even have on the ground for normal takeoff
Meanwhile the plane would only be on the belt for a second until it jumped off of there

Then I've also heard some fools say
Well
What if the belt was as long as the whole runway?

Plane would still move forward at the same rate of speed and take off, if you ask me.
