It would be better to build everything out of concrete for thermal and acoustic reasons. Not to mention after the leaky condo saga, I don't see why you'd build any MDU out of wood. Developers just do not give a crap about building good housing unless a gun is to their head.

This is such a dumb comment. You can have extremely well insulated and airtight buildings with wood. It's not about the inner skin or frame that determines whether a building is well insulated.
