That 16 in 12 means you will have 16 fractures and be in the emergency room for 12 hours if you make a wrong step while on top of it :)

Stay away from the cellulose (ground up newspaper). It will give good power bills but your house will stay dusty. I have it in my house , so I know this for a fact.

How to keep dust out.... spray foam around all can lights, ceiling elec boxs, all wire holes through plates. Caulk every stud where it meets plywood bottom plates to concrete floor and where top plates sit on top of each other. Caulk keeps out spiders/bugs or at least limits em. You keep the air from moving that cellulose you limit the dust. I glue house wrapping to block foundation with f-26 at the bottom too. No Leakey air no dust....that is all!!
