Is soundproofing needed in interior wall?
I will be building an interior wall with single-layer drywall on one side and double on the other.
45x95mm wooden studs.
Connecting walls are tongue and groove without internal insulation.
Is it worth soundproofing this wall internally?

Depends a bit on what type of rooms are on each side of the wall, but if they are regular rooms (not bathrooms, children's rooms, laundry rooms, etc.), then it probably isn't necessary. However, if it's just a small wall, it doesn't cost much to add a bit of insulation.
It is a short slanted wall.
1400x2500.
Four studs and three noggings. So the plasterboard doesn't move.
I have heard somewhere that insulation in interior walls only insulates against cavity sound inside the wall. That is, when you knock or something on it.
But that could be completely wrong.

A small rule is that if the other walls are the same in construction, the new ones should be too. That is, if the others have a standard frame, drywall, and insulation, the new one should have that too... Personally, I would install insulation in the stump you are planning to make... Otherwise, it might be a bit hollow... I even installed insulation in a screen that separated the shower and toilet in a construction project...
