How much are you tearing down and what does it look like behind all the tretex?
I'm tearing down pretty much everything. I'm down to the standing planks now (log house) will plan down the irregularities, put in plastic and drywall :) (the house is insulated from the outside)

See picture, that's what it looks like after all the tretex is gone.

Do you really need to plane if you're going to put OSB and drywall afterwards?

We're skipping the OSB, apparently throwing money away when you have such a good base with standing planks. The OSB is really there to be able to hang things up, etc. Now we have a stable wall where you can hang whatever you want, really. So it will probably just be 13 mm gypsum :)

Are you thinking the same?

As you can see in the previous post I just stripped the wallpaper. I put 6mm renovation plasterboard on top of tretex and painted. Moreover, I took down all the paper-stretched ceilings and replaced them with plasterboard.

Additionally, I did frame a new wall in a room with OSB and plasterboard on top.
