Well, you don't have to live there in the summer either. That makes more than a little difference. TE: enter u value calculator on Google and try it. Unfortunately, I don't have the time right now.

A few more centimeters of insulation don't make much difference here. The mass to achieve a corresponding phase shift and temperature amplitude damping is simply missing. This is a fundamental problem in the attic. For example, one could insert a double layer of OSB boards or a clay building board between the vapor barrier and the insulation. This provides significantly more heat protection than, for example, even 30 cm of insulation.

I agree with you. I generally recommend OSB boards as a replacement for the vapor barrier. They add a reasonable amount of mass. It's just that there isn't enough time to respond thoroughly right now. No one here has that either. I also prefer stone wool over glass wool. Probably even better would be wood fiber boards.
