Is a timber frame house from back then the same as one built post 1950 though? Some Q's:
Have materials/practices decreased in quality?
Has there been a shift from a sense of pride in craft and duty to build well towards cutting corners and saving $?
Has the density and properties of wood changed as we use smaller trees grown more quickly in monocultures compared to old-growth harvested lumber of pre 1900s?

Restricting freedoms too?! You must be one uhv them commi an-tee-fah immigrants takin' up all our jobs and unemployment benefits! Stay away from our cats! ... unless they belong to childless women, then it's fair game! /S
Whoa whoa whoa, building codes? That's just costly red tape! How will builders see ever increasing profit margins with all this government bureaucracy?! Remove the building codes entirely, let the Free MarketTM do an invisible handshake with Jesus, and the rest will take care of itself /s
