It's not like you couldn't have dumped the levels on a younge/older sibling :p. The point of the treasure hunting levels was to add the familiar unique gameplay introduce in Sonic Adventure 1 to characters not named Sonic since he was not the sole important character in the game anymore. I think the levels added nice transitions between Sonic and Tails's gameplay. Without them, the game would feel kinda empty. Giving Knuckles levels similiar to Sonic would have been pointless because it would have just been another game where all the characters run to the end of the stage to stop the bad guy.
Not that S3&K was not a fantastic game where they were still able to seperate Sonic from Knuckles by giving him more of a way to find paths to get to the end of the levels, but the 3d game just opened up for something more interesting and unique for individual characters/characters that fit that role.
