You'd have to make sure you had good vapor control on the inside so you didn't get condensation on the inside of the metal skin though or it could start rotting the stuff out.

Just curious. Another benefit I suppose is termites don't eat metal (but again, if you detail it properly they won't get to your wood framing either...)
My uncle was an engineer. The foam and building must be at least a decade old and none of those problems have risen.
