I wonder about the robustness of unreinforced concrete walls. I live in a part of the country that has seen 100ºF temperature extremes. Others live in area prone to earthquakes. It would seem that any sort of remodeling or major repair would start with a jack hammer.
My wife would go absolutely bonkers with the structure. She is super tidy and cleaning the walls and ceilings would be better suited to a pressure washer. That of course, could be solved with a coat of plaster or stucco.
Any rewiring or replumbing becomes a major project unless you would be willing to live with exposed utilities.
It could be a great option for shop or shed though. I could see having a dual print head where and foam insulating section could be simultaneously printed with two outer concrete layers for those who live in colder climates.
