I’m no engineer, but I’ve tended to think this particular station design concept looks a lot more likely to work out than the other commercial station proposals out there. Intuitively, having a single habitation section done up just as one big cylinder on the end of a section for power and launched in one big piece is one of the simplest designs a space station could have, and given that private entities have not previously launched and operated their own stations, let alone found a way to do so profitably, going for a less ambitious design feels like a good move to get something started with. But maybe I’m underestimating the complexity of this design or overestimating the difficultly of the other proposals based on modular construction.
