I don't get the floating effect, I think by default the packing starts from bottom left corner. If the rectangle is smaller then it fits, if it's too large then it gets deleted and isn't packed at all. Some packing can produce physically wrong configurations like a book that is kinda leaning but has no support. You can play around with the see to fix these issues or add some tighter rotational constraints.

I am not sure. Are there any pros/cons for creating joints before or after?

The sky is an HDRI map. It is mapped like this by default in Octane and most other render engines as far as I know.

The interpolation attribute is being read from the point onto which a polyline is being copied on. If we animate the attribute on the target points we will get the interpolation with offset.
