It seems to me that you didn't "over-insulate," instead, you
insulated the "right amount". Ever since we defied all the local
conventional wisdom and put nine inches of insulation into our walls
by insulating the existing walls and then building new walls five
inches inside of the exterior walls and insulating those, we've been
enjoying lower heating and air conditioning bills. Personally, I
think that generally most builders underinsulate businesses and
condemn their occupants to perpetual indenture to utility
companies. <br>

However...the heating demand for this space is very
nearly zero. The whole house (before this remodel)
burned through about 5 cords/winter and it was never
really cozy. So far this winter my mom's burned a
little over one-tenth of a cord. <br>
