Default Wall insulation detail, is this OK

The foam seems an unneeded complication.
If the sheathing on the cavity face of the studs is acceptable, gypsum
board should be o.k in most situations. As I understand it, the issue
with large window openings includes anchorage of the frame to the
foundation. Local codes should note wind speed to be used for design.
