Man R38 IMO is a lot of insulation. I don't know if R38 would fit in the space between the ceiling and roof. I looked up in there while installing a MaxxAir in the bedroom and it appears to be very little insulation. All may brown spots and yellow lines are at the highest part of the ceiling.
I wonder if they might use the foil radiant barrier in the roof. I agree with you, R38 fiberglass is 12" thick. From what I recall, you're not suppose to compress it either. Of course, I know mine don't have 12 inches of insulation anywhere, crushed or not.
