Solid walls and high ceilings are better than
walls I can accidentally put my foot through and ceilings I graze my knuckles on when I stretch, both features I have noted new new builds. They may well have their up sides, but space is not one of them, nor is robustness. I suppose it depends what you prioritise, but feeling comfortable in the space and not cramped matters to me more than efficiency whatever that means in this context.

Less likely to get subsistance and stuff.
Basically what I'm trying to remember is what my architect friend said. It was summarised as new builds have less things that go really badly wrong than older houses. But then by the time you've bought it, it's probably already gone wrong and been fixed.
