Working on the other side... Water works well. Really well for removing the glue-debris-last pieces stuck on a wall. And it keeps the dust down. Surprise. I still prefer to scrape off what I can and then use water and sponge to clean off the wall. This is the south facing wall / corner; scraping paper and cleaning with water&sponge this am.
Down to the plaster. And a few cracks to fix. (North facing wall, started 7/23)

I refer to my KISS home maintenance book to read up on scraping wallpaper and fixing cracks. Seems doable, the plaster/crack fixing. It is in this book that they suggest ordinary water and sponge. No product required.
Either way, I will make a call to my Contract-HER to let me know if the walls are "bouncy". I am not sure if this is contractor speak or what, but she did fix another "bouncy" wall in my home, so I may as well get this one checked for firmness before painting. I also want a quote on the floor work - cutting out damaged wood to replace with tiles.
And, to finish off the scraping, I need the ladder... for the upper portion :)
What a huge pile of work! But your house is going to look so great...
