ᐅ Painter’s fleece vs. textured wallpaper vs. textured fleece wallpaper

Hello everyone,
We are about to start the painting work.
Our house was built with Ytong blocks.
All walls (except the bathrooms) currently have a smooth gypsum plaster finish.
The bathrooms have a cement plaster finish.
The ceilings upstairs are made of gypsum plasterboard, while on the ground floor there are precast concrete panel ceilings, whose joints still need to be filled.
Originally, until recently, we planned the following:
Hallways / entrance areas / staircases and possibly bathrooms with a textured, sanded, or fine felt plaster.
All ceilings (after applying the appropriate primer) covered with textured fiber wallpaper and then painted.
All walls (after priming with deep-penetrating primer) covered with textured wallpaper and then painted.
About 1.5 weeks ago, our drywall contractors advised us that they use ONLY painting fleece, which is then painted over.
I understand that painting fleece is used to conceal small cracks (settlement cracks). But can textured wallpaper or textured fiber wallpaper do the same?
Aside from planning to visit the home improvement store this weekend to see if I like (possibly textured) painting fleece, I’m now unsure what makes more sense.
1. Painting fleece only, then painted over.
2. As originally planned, textured fiber wallpaper or textured wallpaper, then painted.
3. Painting fleece with textured (fiber) wallpaper on top, then painted.
Would option 3 be redundant?
Maybe someone can give me some advice so I don’t buy too much or unnecessarily.
Thanks,

We sanded down and painted directly, I think it looks pretty wild Exactly that – sanding and painting directly onto the bare wall – I just can’t imagine myself doing that at all. I would only consider it in the utility room and storage room.
But as you already said: thankfully, tastes differ.
