Hmm - it's a thought - use the existing flooring. what I'm afraid of is

This would get dramatically worse. What sound deadening material could
I put between the joists and the flooring? It ain't going to be a
floating floor, because it isn't tongued and grooved.

It'll be like having the carpet on the other side, soundproofing effect
roughly similar to now. Do you want something other than rockwool for
some reason?
