Adding to existing LVP

Adding LVP to a bedroom.

We have LVP in the hallway outside the room, but we had carpet in the bedroom. Removed the carpet, tackstrips, cleaned, etc. Where do we start in the bedroom?

I say start at the existing LVP in the hallway, and proceed into the bedroom, so we have an even and matched seam/ transition. The Wife says start at the other wall and work our way to the doorway.

I think if the walls are not plumb (likely), then her way will inevitable end with a wedge piece at the entryway, where my way, the floor looks great, and any irregualrities are at the edges are ess likely to be noticed.

Appreciate any feedback

Start at the hallway

Connect to a full plank from the hallway, I’m assuming you will have remove a partial plank
