If I were to put drywall in my garage, then cover with the pre painted

This is a detached garage, right?

If so, why bother with drywall? It's main purpose is fire retardation and
that's usually not much of an issue in a detached garage.

Drywall has only a minuscule insulation property (R=0.45) which can be
almost matched with 1/4" plywood (R=0.31).

I guess I wanted it to look halfway decent. Something I could be
pround of.
