What do the danger stickers say?

When we worked out the cost difference of loftzone to wickes there was about 30£ in it. And we went for that as it had a weight limit which kept my girlfriend's worries at bay!
We didn't know this when we started but all of the joists were in random positions which would have meant a lot of cutting loft boards so that they fit on top of the wickes pillars. You don't have to worry about this with the loftzone stuff as the boards sit on metal which bridges between the pillars.

How thick is the insulation? Ours was about ~300mm deep, which is recommended. Used some loft legs on the beams, then some planks to join them which made boarding with standard boards a doddle. Someone on here did recommend that loftzone stuff as pretty easy/sturdy to do.
Edit: insulation looks compressed here, but it fumfed back up quite well.

Loft boarding...
Victorian house...
Raised floors to not crush the existing insulation?
something posh/branded like this - https://www.loftzone.co.uk/product/storefloor/
or any old loft legs from Wickes/Screwfix?
And is there any need to replace existing stuff or is it likely to be fine as long as it's deep enough.
And any particular gotchas for someone fairly handy but by no means pro...
