Seems like a terrible idea to me.

You make one mistake one time and bingo, you cost yourself a few grand to have it sanded, leveled, varnished, and polished.

    Oh yeah, now that you mention it, there were dire humidity warnings all over the flooring I got.

    I imagine there might be similar disclaimers on carpets too

      Carpet is much more resilient to moisture, as long as it gets dried back out - that’s why it’s so popular in basements. Tile and vinyl plank also hold up really well to lots of moisture. Wood Is ok with humidity, it will expand and contract, but immersion will destroy it.
