I've used the floating vinyl many times over the past 20 or so years. Works great if you have a basement or the floor temps remain constant. If floor is in a trailer or crawl that isn't heated, in the winter the vinyl will have wrinkles.
You don't want to nail it down at a doorway either. It needs to contract and expand. It's great for the DIY guy. Should remove old vinyl or water will get trapped between the two vinyls and it will get moldy smelling. Need to leave at least 1/4 inch at walls and cover gap with molding.
In a kitchen, don't sit the cabinets on it, again it needs to expand and contract. So when building a new kitchen, I have shims under cabinets and slid the flooring a few inches under cabinets.
No clue how to seam it together.
When I make a bathroom, I put the vinyl down before in install the shower, sinks and toilet. Need to let the vinyl set at room temp and flatten out before putting a shower over it. Because you weight it down, you may get a few bulges.
Upside is it isn't as likely to get damaged than the glued vinyl when objects are slid over it .
I like it better than the glued stuff. Very easy to remove and replace. Not that expensive, very thick too. George

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
