I hear ya on any improvement being good. The point I was trying to make is that for the same money you could ADD R20 to your whole house, almost completely eliminate thermal bridging and not disturb the living space much at all with outsulating the walls. You also can add a rain screen which is great. Of course to really do it right you would need to tear up the inside of the house. I plan to add foam to the outside and then probably do something like a mooney or double wall on the inside when time permits.
