I think he wants it to act as an insulator.

No, it won't dry out your substrate because where would the water go?

I cant see that it would hurt anything but may just be a waste of time, if you
can find the foil faced insulation then that would help, call HVAC contractors,
many use ducting that is foil faced and spun bond fibreglass thats ideal for the
purpose, if you cant get hold of it, hit home depot, they have foam board thats
suitable
