Brosef, have you never been behind a tinted window? It’s not unusual to want to block all the light, plus, you’re not even seeing all the light.

G-dawg, have you considered that… IT’S FACING THE WRONG WAY Also, objectively you would end up spending more money for fancy solar windows to intentionally let those precious photons seep through. The only place I could see something like this “working” would be in a predominantly glass-roofed building where the amount of light coming through the roof needs to be intentionally limited, and the location does not have space for a freestanding or conventional solar setup. That’s such an edge case usage that I can’t imagine why I’ve been hearing this same dumb idea for the last 20 years.
