Default Rafters in Unoccupied Attic - To Insulate or not to Insulate?

Watching Home Free on TV. One of the teams was
assigned to insulate the attic in a Georgian Revival.


They were stapling batts in the roof rafters. I was brought
up to believe that you insulate rafters ONLY if attic was to
be occupied at least 90% of the time, and to insulate
just the attic deck(above the top floor ceilings).


Have things changed here in good ol 2015?
