ᐅ Masonry using Ytong blocks, 24 cm or 30 cm thick, for a single-family house?

Hello building experts,
It looks like construction can start soon. I was convinced by the regional TuC partner regarding the overall concept because of the monolithic construction method.
In the "basic package," the masonry is made from 24cm (9.5 inches) Ytong blocks. Does anyone have practical experience with thermal and sound insulation? The residential location is very quiet, traffic-calmed, and has almost no through traffic.
Alternatively, I am considering a build with 30cm (12 inches) blocks; I still need to find out the additional cost.
Best regards,
Ruska

TundC wants to achieve all this with 24cm (9.5 inches) as well? It's unclear how that would work. Ask them, the 30cm (12 inches) option is a good choice, I tell you. So with 30cm (12 inches) aerated concrete, you can reach “KfW 60,” but with 24cm (9.5 inches) it’s questionable whether the energy saving regulations are met? I see.
Insulation thickness or wall thickness for insulation purposes is a calculation and nothing else.

Burglary protection? Sure, you can break through the wall if you drive a Unimog into it. I think he means: windows screwed into the Y-ton can be pushed in completely along with the frame and screws, causing less noise than smashing the glass.
