Yep in theory it's all nice and easy, just put foils in and open the windows sometimes.

In practice... say, there is a dog that likes to gnaw on corners and thus punctures the vapor barrier. Happened to my own house's outside insulation. That's just one of many "unforeseen" ways how these foils and barriers stop working. I fully expect the polystyrene there to get moldy in 20 years or even less.
