> stone walls for each internal room seems like charming until you realize that you can't use wall space

Why is it not possible to use stone wall space?

I think it's more accurate to say that there simply is no wall space, because the walls ARE the stones.

There are ways around it, probably using copious amounts of conduit etc. but it's a lot of work compared to simply living somewhere that already has utility outlets where you need them.

They are saying that the footprint of 3ft thick walls takes up a lot more of your usable floor space than a modern home's walls would.
