I'll admit I didn't go throw your entire build list, but stopped when you mentioned studs: steel studs are for non load-bearing walls only. That coupled with the cheaper cost of 2x4's and I really don't understand why they are used at all.

Do yourself a favor and use standard 2x4's, or if you are going to insulate spend the extra .30/ stud and do 2x6.
