    Rain water in joints!

    A few good days of warm sunshine should do the trick. You might get some efflorecence. It's a yard after all so no way of preventing moisture

    Floor prep question

    the screws hold it down so your wedi board should be mechanically fixed with screws and washers ideally into the structural subfloor i.e. the joists, and not just the floor boards.

    Anhydrite+Ditra+Porcelain - Mapei Primer or not / Keraquick with or without Latex Plus

    I think you are very much over thinking it. And getting very confused about manufacturers and suppliers. LKAB do not make or sell Anhyfix. Anhyfix is a tile adhesive made by Tilemaster. Tile master is owned by Kerakoll. Moisture testing with Carbide bomb needs to give 0.5% moisture not 0.02%...

    Anhydrite+Ditra+Porcelain - Mapei Primer or not / Keraquick with or without Latex Plus

    I wouldn't recommend using keraquick on anhydrite withoutva primer. Keraquick is cement based so wont stick well without.

    Soundproofing/Acoustic Underlay Suggestions

    Isorubber top I think will go on ply and you can then tile on it. If not that one then look up thermal economics as they will have something.

    Has all my Laitance been removed??

    yes it does... without wishing to be in any way harsh - it tells me that you don't know what you are looking at. to be dry the screed needs to be below 0.5% moisture or 75% RH. when it was made in the factory it had perhaps 13% moisture so your 30% is clearly wrong.

    Liquid screeds

    WASHED!! WITH WATER!! well i hope you have left it plenty of time to dry out... as for ditra you are correct. if using stone on a heated screed then ditra yes but otherwise personal choice

    Has all my Laitance been removed??

    If you are not sure sand it again? It's you that needs to be comfortable that its properly prepped. I can say there is some small, patches of what looks like flaky laitance there but whether its enough to cause you an issue I dont know from photos.
