There is no way that the 2” thick concrete overlay simply poured on top of the old slab would have bonded to the old concrete. The welded wire fabric laying on top of the old slab wasn’t going to do crap. The new concrete would have cracked and spalled in no time.
The same can be said for the welded wire fabric laying on the ground for the new addition. It would have not added any structural integrity nor prevented any cracking..

Agreed. It would have laid on the bottom doing nothing. No room to even put stands on it or pull it up to the center as they poured. I bet Trevor also tried to save a few bucks and didn't even have the concrete company add fiber to the mix.
