I may be wrong on this, but I thought that the biggest problem with the gholam going through the gateway is that the gholam acts like Mat's medallion and stops the weaves. In this case, it shouldn't be able to go through any kind of gateway but rather destroy the weave for the gateway upon touching it.
The gateway itself is not a weave but a hole in the space. Gholam wasn't touching the weave at all. The same way, Mat wasn't touching gateways when he was travelling through it with Rand in earlier books.
An annoying gateway error.

Yes, RJ confirmed that Shadowspawn can't survive gateways. *NM*

And then BS confirmed that gholam are "more perfected" Shadowspawn which can.

Why would them not being able to survive a gateway be a problem?

They prepared a place, and it just happened to be within walking distance of the attack?

Please re-read the chapter. It expalins a lot.

Likely picked from a handful of pre-determined locations based on where and when the attack occurred

Perhaps, but I don't think so.

Not realty. Caemlyn is huge by the standards of the time but realistically it's tiny

The sizes I proposed are not huge (well, they would be by standards in the middle ages but not now)

I believe Caemlyn is less than 300k people .... That's what .05% the size of London?

You aren't seriously comparing modern population densities to medieval ones, are you? *NM*

That would be an error if it hadn't been Skimming (the platform and what not) they were using.

It is an error because they opened a skimming gateway to the house (from the skimming place)

I'm confused now as to what you're arguing. They knew the location of the house.

I stand corrected. Though I will say that the uses in the books don't match the definition.
