#1 drawback in my opinion (I only do commercial construction now), is there's little or no flexibility, once the structure is done. You can't change much of anything and even something as simple as running a cable for your TV, can become a huge job. Everything that runs through the house, is run through a conduit in the walls ... anything you add, has to go on the wall.

They use reflective foam insulation panels and furring strips on exterior walls making space for wiring.
It's reported they also no longer do design modifications to exterior walls other than a few standard bumps. Even on stick and CB homes.
