Is it reasonable to mix block density on the same wall for a 5x3m building? This would be the 7n 20kg blocks with the medium and light density blocks for an outer wall and aerated for an inner wall.

Background: I ended up with eccentric foundations with the outer coarse running just a few cm from the foundation outer edge. So I figured I would make the building lighter overall. But I have about 120 20kg blocks sitting in my garden already.

My plan was to use up all dense blocks on the inner and outer course then on the outer leaf switch to light or medium density and on the inner switch to aerated. Inner wall I planned to put plasterboard and outer I plan to render but open to change.
