The "blocks" are not cheap, but when you compare the finished wall including thermal insulation, they are not more expensive than a conventionally built wall and offer significantly better thermal insulation values!
In the end, you have a solid wall with polystyrene insulation—basically the same approach everyone else uses. However, the advantage here is that the insulation is also on the inside, so the wall doesn’t need to be reheated.
Whether the wall is built "brick by brick" or cast from concrete doesn’t make much difference in the end. The only difference is that concrete is much stronger, so the walls can be thinner. The complex construction of concrete ring beams and lintels is no longer necessary. Just place steel reinforcement at the appropriate points and pour concrete. Done. If advertising were allowed here, I would recommend checking out iso-Massivhaus.de.
I wish you all the best and don’t let yourself be unsettled by people who find fault with everything. Usually, it’s because they want to sell you something else.

Maybe Willi Wacker can enlighten us regarding the following points:
Shift of the dew point towards the interior, mold growth under the interior insulation, no option to install a vapor barrier.
What potential effects do voids and defects during concrete pouring have on the structural integrity? How is the structural stability ensured in general, and what impact might the embedded steel components have on sound insulation?
Does interior insulation cause a loss of living space?
What about mounting heavy items on the polystyrene insulation?
So, papi10, first look up “Lego construction method,” form an opinion, then assess the risks and decide.
