The plywood was resisting shear in the building diaphragm and if they are destroyed, your home could literally topple over.

If it is a rental unit I use tile for wear resistant reason.

One of the contractors showed me wood-look vinyl tile planks and said that people prefer these vs. laminate flooring in rental houses and apartments since vinyl is water resistant.

We look for internet resistant tenants ( food,karate,barber,gym,doctor,nail salon, hair salon,etc.)

I set my buy limits at historical support, sell limits at resistance and let them go.

So I'm starting from the bottom again.My only advice, is to really check yourself and decide what the best and most guaranteed path (of least resistance) to get to where you want to go.Once you decide.

It's pretty glossy and water resistant. 

Resists chemicals, urine, blood, MEK, acetone, oil, vomit, the whole 9 yards.  

However, some older tenants are not motivated to change anything, they see almost anything a landlord asks as a hassle and they resists efforts of compliance, or ignore requests.

Getting the regular electric company out to do the final install of the new meter so we could hook in to the grid and turn the system on took about three months though.In reference to @Wilson Churchill 's point #2: I haven't followed this whole issue super closely, but I do know there's been a lot of resistance from the public utility here (Xcel energy) about net metering (that's what the "sellback" is usually called).
