The insulation is usually applied on the outside of the building so the protected volume is more homogeneous, avoiding cold bridges where walls/ceilings join, cause that’s where mould tends to grow
In all the new build houses I’ve worked on the insulation is on the inside, in the UK at least. Though it’s been at least 10 years since I’ve been on site.
Also usually external insulation is quite visible and I still see lots of domestic properties with bare external brickwork.
