What could be more "standard" to connect two pieces of pipe than a pipe
coupler?

Clamps tend to bow depending on their tightness. I'd think that a
regular pipe coupler would be the weak point and the first part to
break when used to join pipe clamps.

BREAK!? LMAO!

If you're getting close to breaking a steel pipe coupler by using it in
a pipe clamp, I would submit...
A. you're using a bulldozer to plant flowers.
B. you can't turn the clamps hard enough with your hands to break it.
