Brilliant! Couldn't agree more with you. But I can say much of that is un-true.

I don't know where to begin...

My dragons are especialy active when I am around. They usually jump from there perch out on to me, and happily jump back in when it is time. They hunt on there own, since I allow crickets to live in their Viv freely. I have seen my MHDs bathe in front of me, drink, all sorts of things. They are active when I am not around too. They leave signs.

My dragons are not territorial at all. In fact they all stay right on thier perches, and return after visits to the ground. They almost never leave their favorite spots. Plus, they don't really use the basking spot.

Most of the plants are on the outside f the Viv, creating a sort of concealment. But they aren't shy when it comes to feeding.
and last of all, you are right about the Viv design. Although it isn't too bad. I still keep the humidity constant and rather high, and Temp. variation lies within the room temperature. Room temperature is the base temp for my Viv, basking spots and warm areas add to it.

and last, you said radiating cold from the floor. Heat moves from warm areas to cool areas, never the other way around. So a cold floor would actually draw the heat downwards, to an extent. Plus it is upstairs so the convection from the lower part of the house would in turn heat the upstairs floor wich would heat the ground of the Viv. So yeah...
