I have to wonder if the original oak, likely from an old growth forest, might not be able to be sanded and resurfaced. You can hardly find century-old wood these days, and when you do, it’s often pretty good wood. How nice it might be to keep the original wood upon which Marconi and associates once trod.
I don't have any other information, but I'm sure IA made the decision for good reasons. We will find out those reasons and report back.
I hope they didn't decide to sell the oak for extra cash, its worth keeping it for the sentimental value. Unless it is completely rotted through, in which case the not-rotten parts can be salvaged....
I don't think it is fair to negatively speculate about that.
