Ventilation allows heat and cold to enter and exit within a respectable middle ground. On cold days it will be warmer on average, and on warm days cooler then average. Its worth the consideration if you live in a very cold, or very hot place. The roof covers a wide area and is the most common way to exchange heat and cold.

Who can we prevent roofs from dampness?
If the roof slates or tiles are in good repair, with no slipped or missing slates or tiles, there should not be any dampness. If there is, the probable cause of dampness in the roof space (loft) is bad ventilation. Ensure there are air spaces or good ventilation under the eaves, covered by mesh to keep out nesting birds.

Gable vents are actually counter productive when used with ridge vents. It is better to have ventilation at the soffits which will create a draft drawing in cooler air and exhausting it through the ridge.

Painting a roof white has nothing to do with whether it contains asbestos or not. White efficiently reflects the sun's heat, helping to keep the space under the roof cooler than it would otherwise be in a different color.
