Reflective barriers are worthless unless you put them on the outside of a building in a warm climate.
A plastic barrier that is sealed will slow down vapor transfer and stop the wind from blowing through.

There is very little understanding of building science, certainly among the general population, and even most contractors have very limited grasp on how to slow heat transfer.
