Any pics of these L brackets?

 

Why not just fix the 4x2s directly to the wall?

They are just standard 100x50mm 2mm thick L brackets.  No pics, I fitted everything within a day so was going quick!

 

To fit them directly would have needed at least 150mm concrete screws, and quite a few of them.

I wonder if you could have gone standard PIR in this kind of buildup, rather than the more expensive k5? What even is the difference?

Maybe, as it doesn't have foil and is covered with a house wrap I suppose it can 'breathe', if that's important.  When I ran out of K5, I did use half a board of foil covered board, though.
