I would have someone take a look, not necessarily an expert, but a caring person with expertise from my circle of acquaintances or, if none is available, a local roofer.

Well, just because they botched the neighbor's job doesn't mean anything for your roof. If a colleague has a heart attack, I don't go to the doctor either. Try to find out exactly what the problem was, obviously some kind of sealing. You can then check that yourself on your own place.

Caution is definitely warranted. In the pictures, it looks like the upper track is also a standard track. Normally, you would make one with sand or slate, which are more durable. You probably can't use crushed stone as protection thanks to the load-bearing capacity of wood. All in all, the cheapest setup you can make. I don't think a little risk prevention is wrong there.

Bekiesen is a challenge for the structural design. It has nothing to do with the material wood. The tar paper sheets are inexpensive and waterproof if processed correctly. It makes sense to check; the solution is not fundamentally bad.

Of course, it has something to do with wood. To achieve the necessary load, you need unreasonably thick material thicknesses with wood. As a developer, you easily save that. I've been through the deal with two flat roofs. As soon as something is to be placed on it, it becomes tight with wood (here once gravelled and once greened). Reinforced concrete, and the discussion is over.
