They weren't there when we started the job, most of the floor had slc down on it as its one of the worst poured floors I have worked on.
Advised that they must use a decoupler but they wouldn't listen so it got tiled as is.
This company never learn, they still overboard with 6mm ply.

Gypsum screed with wet underfloor heating with a 800x800mm porcelain tile, should it be uncoupled?

It can but I wouldn't tbh.
I would use Anhyfix for that job & tile away after testing & sanding the screed.

Anhyfix

Anhyfix from TileMaster, brilliant adhesive to use.
It's a gypsum compatible adhesive specifically designed for calcium sulphate screeds.
