For most hand-portable tools the 50/60 issue just DOES NOT exist, since most of them are "universal" motors that care little about the frequency since they are a series AC/DC motor. ** They will run at the same speed with 50Hz or 60Hz. All they need is the voltage.
The 240V outlet deal, there is no inherent reason why you cannot have more outlets than one on a 240V circuit. It is not COMMON in the US because most 240V items are large enough that they do get their own circuit.... Dryers and stoves typically need higher currents, and portable cord-type tools are not capable of dealing with the possible fault currents. You do not want the fault current that a 50A breaker allows to flow though a portable tool cord.
But for 15A and 20A circuits, regular plug-in devices rated for the voltage are reckoned to be capable of opening the breaker if there is a fault. And, remember, a 15A 220 circuit is the power equivalent of a 30A 120V circuit, so it is not as limited on how many items can be plugged-in and used. Any given device pulls half the current at 240V that it would at 120V..
As for mixing 120V and 240V outlets on one "multi-wire branch circuit" (2 hots and neutral pulled, with 120V outlets alternating to each hot), I'd have to look that up. I have not run into that, never considered it, so I am not sure what the code says, but as a "reflex" I would likely not do it.
For plugs, thre seem like a lot, but in general fewer get used than are possible. And it is allowable to use any type that is rated for the voltage and current. The restriction is that you (naturally) may not use one type for different voltages.
The 120V plug is just for that, but a 240V plug could be used at 120V, if desired for some reason, such as to restrict a machine from being plugged into a 15A circuit that uses a NEMA 5-15 outlet. Then, you would have to NOT use that plug type for any other use in the building. There IS a 20A 120V plug (NEMA 5-20 per the chart posted), but the compatible outlets set up for either that or 15A tend to get used everywhere, so that is not a good option for restriction to 20A circuits.
** In fact, the DC compatibility is ancient, a sort of "extra" these days, when DC is nearly extinct. The motors are really designed to work with AC (low inductance, etc) but no inherent reason why DC would not work if you had it.
