When a house is built with wall blocks, do you construct the corners on site, or how is it done? Do you construct the blocks with 45-degree ends so that they meet diagonally at the corner, or do you let one block go all the way out to the edge of the slab?
By the way, my blocks will consist of a 22 mm wood panel on the outside. Then there will be 70 mm of horizontal insulation followed by 170 mm of vertical insulation. Then there will be a construction plastic followed by 45 mm of interior insulation (to be able to do electrical wiring without damaging the plastic). What do you knowledgeable people think about that amount of insulation? It should be reasonably future-proof, right?

no, there are probably no 45-degree corners,

Now I understand how it works
thank you for the help.

Yes, that is also a possibility. The same timber volume and insulation volume are used, so there shouldn't be any significant price difference to build with that solution. An advantage might also be that the house becomes somewhat stiffer due to using 195 framing instead of 170 
45+170+45:
"stiffness" is achieved with external gypsum+panel and internal gypsum+OSB
