There are too many questions and proposed descriptions to address it all, so here's some basic advice:
Yes, remove both half-walls so the room is a plain rectangle. Put the speakers at the balcony end of the room so you get to look out the window while you listen. Don't worry about the terrible frequency response since you don't have any bass traps and other treatment yet. There's no need to replace the floor material, just get some thick carpet if the sound is too live. Then add as much treatment as you can manage, and then you can assess the sound quality and measurements again.
