Tracking. How would you keep a wall sandwich like that together? If you use something like furring strips, you'll end up drilling so many holes through the dimple mat into the wall it seems like it defeats the purpose. I did the wall more to hold my dimple mat in place AND give space for an insulation R-value cheaper than using foam.

Hoping there’s an adhesive I could bond the rigid insulation to the plastic panels. If it’s plywood, you make a good point. Maybe I should use 1x2 furring strips with concrete anchors, then the rigid foam, then the plywood. That would allow for secure ways to attach shelving for myself and future owners without having to go down the concrete anchor route again.
