They'll own an edition to the artwork (I think there are 3 currently?) so they can reproduce the artwork at any time and sell the edition on... at which point the new owner can eat/reproduce it as many times as they want to instead.

I have the old 'regatta' version of this...

Yep, back to brick, replace rotten joists, reconfigure, insulate, first fix, etc... years of work (for me)!

You can never know the consequence of a seemingly bad outcome, or a seemingly good outcome, I cling to that kind of thought when things get tough.
We might end up accelerating climate mitigation over the next decade if Trump gets in... he really could swing the pendulum back based on the bullshit he's promising.

Corporations are obliged to make profit for their shareholders, so they can't do whatever they want.
Perhaps find a framework on a local scale that brings about positive change in your local community then find a way to scale that? It's far easier to solve lots of small problems, you can only focus on one thing at a time, etc.

It's a shame that your septic tank isn't contributing to our record-breaking crop of 'sweetcorn of the sea' this year...

I'd use a strong magnet to locate the joists and screw into those. The laths will be attached to the joists with lots of small iron nails.

As others have mentioned: keep it for sound reasons unless your ceiling height is a huge concern.
I'd square off that hole so it can be easily double-boarded in that area, otherwise the sound performance will be worse than before (a single sheet of plasterboard will transfer more sound than the old laths/plaster).

No sealant needed for mechanical fit, but really the whole design/approach is wrong.
Normally you improve the building envelope first, although that's tricky if you have a difficult shape, planning restrictions, or lots of external walls.
Cheapest method is to improve/heat one room (lounge) and slowly work through the rest as time/money allows.
