These straps seem incorrectly installed. Would it still be considered a toenail ?
There’s multiple reasons why that’s no good.
Not enough fasteners and the gap is too large.
Can we have a picture pulled back a bit more? It looks like you’ve got pictures of a pallet laying in a muddy bog.
Oh and anything not straps or clips is a toe nail. I haven’t really thought about “but what if there are no fasteners”. I.e. not even a toe nail.

You could label it as “toe nail”, and then “metal connectors that do not meet nailing requirements”.
But like Mark said, there are many issues with it, and TBH, would probably do nothing against hurricane force winds.
It looks like a retro-fit. you need to have Product Approval or other engineered approved documents for the installation.
