Happy to help.
The roof is a bit different situation, but potentially better. What I would try is positioning your speaker at the corner of the roof pointing away from the building and put the mic on a boom of some sort out into the air. If there's nothing flat behind the speaker, you should mostly eliminate reflections that way. You would get a reflection from the ground, but if you're high enough up, you could gate that out and get good LF resolution.

THIS is ONE of the reasons why audiophile-land hasn't changed in 45 years. I feel like I'm reading an article from 1972!!
I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but if you're saying that people not measuring the speakers they're building is like being back in the 70's, I suppose I'd agree although I'd say it's like any time before ~2000. Of course the difference now is that it's fairly straight forward to get a good measurement program, a decent mic and sound card, and start learning how to incorporate measurements into building speakers if one is inclined to put in the effort.
