Yes, exactly, that's how it can work: only the additional insulation as continuous insulation above the rafters, and the intended insulation as insulation between the rafters. Then the battens are supported by the rafters (only nailed through the upper insulation).

I still don't know what bothers you about it or how to do it better.

All good. Nothing "bothered" me, I was just confused that you spoke of overlay insulation. But you have now clarified that: you referred to "overlay insulation" only in relation to your addition, meaning in terms of the diagram as a layer 5a. That can probably be done that way. Whether it is "better" than the energy consultant's suggestion, I don't know. To me, it looks more like "more helps more," which I would rather mark with a question mark. I am rather skeptical of series connections of different insulation materials, but I am not an expert in this specialized field myself.

I would like to bring up the topic again.

It hasn't sunk into the eternal meantime since yesterday yet???

Instead of the effort of an external roof insulation, one could simply double the rafters by 6cm. 30cm of mineral wool with a thermal conductivity of 035 is completely sufficient and may also be supported by the BEG (BAFA). The mineral wool can also vent properly via the counter-battens. Therefore, the 3cm interior insulation is not necessary, so nothing rests on the potentially damp inner side of the vapor barrier.
