I worked on a few buildings where they used straw balls lenght wise. They had meter thick walls and it's very efficient. One of them only had a tiny wood stove

When you have a meter... I think anything will work as insulation

I mean at that point a meter of air gap alone would be amazing insulation.

just an air gap is not that good as convection will move the air around decreasing its effectiveness. Most insulation is just a way to try to keep the air in place while the air is doing the actual insulation

Thats not efficient in terms of space though, you'd lose a lot of floor area that way.
