Oooh, that is a lot.
The benefit of boarding and the use of breathable membrane is that it leaves your options open to do absolutely anything underneath in the future. You've clearly got some dormer and used attic space so the option of a warm roof is useful and the small additional cost over a basic job should be worth it.
I'm used to seeing roofs in relatively exposed situations so would automatically tend towards boarding, felting/membraning, battening, counter battening and finishing. Although possibly with variations depending on the final roof finishing. I wouldn't like to see membrane flapping loose over rafters.
