At first I felt this only weakened the floor and I thought of simply laying my subfloor across the entire width with no seams. Now I am wondering if that seam on the C channel was so that if there was flex it wouldnt break the subfloor structure.
Should I make seams over the C channel to the outriggers or should I lay my subfloor as a solid width with no seams to the outriggers?

My subfloor was a solid width, and that's the only way I've seen it in others' projects. I suspect if you have a seam in that location, your subfloor was replaced at some point. When replacing, I'd do the entire width as one piece if possible.
