Great work

Do pavers with polymeric sand in the joints provide enough impermeability for rainwater to drain off or will water seep into the joints and into the soil below?

Yes, as long as it's installed correctly water will run off instead of draining into the soil below. The patio should also be pitched about 1" per 6-8 feet.

This was a great video 😊

May I ask the pipes should place horizontal or vertical before screening?

You can run the pipes horizontal or vertical, what matter is how the patio pitches. A patio generally pitches away from the house so that's the direction the poles run, but if your pavers are away from the house then you can run your poles and pitch the patio in any direction.

I thought polymeric sand was supposed to be compacted into the joints, but you didn't? Was this a type that didn't require that?

It depends on the size of the joints, if they're wide enough the sand will fall to the bottom so you don't have to compact it, but for some pavers we compact two or three times to make sure sand reaches the bottom. You can tell if sand reaches the bottom by how much you're using per sq. ft. of pavers.

It's a little over 100 sq. ft. but I bought about 140 sq. ft. of blocks because of all the cuts.
