It can be an issue, as the laminate is floating. Can't the laminate be
removed?

So what problem is it going to cause? and lets be honest floating is
minium.
Doesn't carpet float on underlay. :-)

Not when it is stapled/grippered down at the edges.

It can't take more than 10 or 15 minutes to rip out the laminate though.

Heh!

And then you have to dispose of it. I cannot for the life of me see any
problems laying carpet over laminate and I would go as far as to say a
completely flat surface for carpet is more better than laying it over bumpy
floorboards or uneven concrete, depending whats underneath his floor.
