Reply to comment by bloomingtonwhy in Add additional insulation to walkout basement wall cavity. Good idea? Bad idea? by hoppyending
It's not a load-bearing wall. It's just to hold drywall. The outer wall (the one with insulation between the studs) is load bearing.

Ah, the ceiling joists are anchored into the outer wall?

Yeah. The floor joists sit on top of the exterior wall. I didn't build any of that. Load-bearing walls are not something I play with.
