once i understood that if the power fails, you get a magical mystery tour to find the manual door release i was like not only is that a terrible decision, it actually should not be legal

Did this one think the earth was hollow or was that another obsessive?

I am not an engineer nor am I engineering-adjacent. I have worked in areas where load per square meter (m2 not m3) matters. It’s about the mass a floor can hold reliably before breaking. There’s likely to be wiggle room there but my risk tolerance for things falling through my floor is low.

Yes but you are not in the same place the entire time. You move. That measure is likely to be a measure for things that do not move.

250kg in 0.4m2 on a floor rated for 200kg/m2 seems a little riskier than I’d want in my house.

200kg/m2 should be fine unless the bed's much less than 1m squared. A queen bed area is apparently just over 3m2, so assuming equal weight distribution you can manage close on 600kgs. I'm confident someone will weigh in (sorry) if I've missed anything obvious
