What a wreck those are to have to deal with.

I try not to think about screeded slabs. Those are anathema, nothing but problems, and should never have been constructed. I've come across a myriad of anomalous foundation configurations that I also won't get into. But, my favorite was a house that was built by placing Tarmac on the ground and then sitting floor trusses right on top.
Scary stuff awaits one out there. It's only a matter of time before you see something you though not possible. If it is too outlandish for one to even conceive, some genius has already done it, twice.
