Which are separate and differing cases, only one of which is of obvious relevance, concerning (as does the present case) adding a granite casing to an already existing limestone structure.
Antechamber, King’s Chamber, “relieving chambers”: this was building a (primarily) granite structure, which was then surrounded (as work progressed) with limestone core blocks and fill. We may note that they economised on working the granite by not working the upper surfaces to a level.
The granite plug blocks: a flop because robbers took the path of least resistance, going round the (hard) granite and cutting through the (soft) limestone.
Your point? Supposing you can string the words together, which I doubt.
