Edit; missed the other post.
Personally I'd say in your subsequent post you've given a series of very sound needs that imo outweigh the nice-to-have of a bigger living area. So I'd treat the loft as a priority.
Your first post read more as "it'll make our bedroom nicer". Which to me would (as Chris said) make an extension more important.

Yup maybe my first comment wasn’t too clear! It feels pretty balanced to me as I can completely see the attraction of a rear extension and just having some lovely living space. TBH I think if the rear looked easier to do, that might also change my calculations a bit - the fact it might be complicated because of the patio is another reason that puts me off. If unsure, do the easier one…

I mean there is a bit more to it than that? It would give better office space and a nicer master bedroom so we can have a decent guest bedroom, but is that essential? Vs a rear extension which doesn't give those things but makes the downstairs more pleasant to live, cook in etc.
Which of those is "need"?
