You’d be surprised - t shirts are usually printed on a big carousel, where the shirt is fixed flat and then doesn’t have to move at all between screens.
I guess moire is more of a problem with multiple halftone screens, but you work all that out when you’re exposing them rather than at the printing stage.

That bit I'm not surprised by - I've seen the carousel. The fixed points will obviously be as rigid as the platen and it's supporting structure, but fabric moves in mysterious ways so while the sides are fixed, the middle can drift about a bit.

It can, but I doubt whether you could maintain consistent registration across the piece on a fabric substrate
