that's a damn good question
I asked myself that question several times today as I pulled it off walls
If I ever build a house there won't be an inch of it on my walls


Jesus folks. We're all beyond upset about this flood, but please stop looking like idiots. Nothing like using a 100+ year flood to justify your rationale.

It's the cheapest, easiest to install, and once installed it's the best looking option. Because it molds once flooded doesn't make it a bad option. That's like asking why we don't all drive submarine-capable cars because your whip flooded.

My biggest problem with drywall is the flip side of the coin of it being "easy" to repair (although I'd submit that to replace and match texture can be tricky for the DIYer).....it's so damn easy to damage.
