Wow... Must be a reason they're inspectors and not builders.
My guy said he couldn't force me to add that electric baseboard, but he'd sure like to see it. I complied, to get along. It worked, remainder of inspections went well. It wasn't the only thing I changed after getting my CO.
They've got a job to do, like you better if you make it easier.
Just went through a problem in Ga. There, for a non-standard house you must prove performance before getting a building permit. 68º in January is the proof they require. No problem, takes a lot of calculating and then a well-written paper.

Ideally, all these experiences turn into entertaining stories later.
