Reply to comment by Ma1eficent in LVP flooring buckling by MotherofTerrier

If you truly did all that then you would have at least a handful of trouble spots. No wall is perfectly straight. Often there’s deep areas of caulk at pull the paper off the drywall.

If you're pulling drywall paper you didn't cut fully. Of course the walls aren't straight, if you are prying and it's trying to.pull paper you just score it at the top of the baseboard.

I appreciate how much you don’t know. On larger gaps the caulk can run down below where you’ll never know until you start pulling. You should only score caulk and not the paper. Often, walls aren’t even finished all the way to the bottom. There are many good reason to add quarter round.
