Haven’t seen it mentioned, maybe I didn’t look hard enough. Wouldn’t this be a huge problem for water damage and mold between the walls? All I can think about is all that shower water + steam getting in there

Our house had one of these slots. When we remodeled the bathroom there was just a huge pile of razor blades. No water damage or mold, just a pain in the ass removing those walls since it was those small slats with nails and cement (I think it was cement?). Just lucky the only asbestos was on the pipes in the basement.

Lath and plaster. It's how they made walls before sheet rock (drywall)

Yup.

Yup, among other things.
