Reviving an old thread but that must be pretty costly to do. Seems about 70% of builders in the Monroe area do OSB in corners and 1/2 inch styrofoam everywhere else. They say it provides better insulation and is actually more expensive than all OSB.

Yes it's more expensive to do, but we build custom high end homes. This cost difference of plywood vs osb in those types of homes is negligible when considering the overall cost of the home.
Osb is cheap and its used because it's cheap. It's not used because it's a quality product.
