I always saw them as heat diffUsers, myself. Maybe I was just engaging in wishful thinking, though. Why would anyone with a large fusion reactor (referred to multiple times) bother with solar panels?
Heat, OTOH, especially WITH a reactor, would be a problem in a densley populated station with a circular cross-section.

Most prominently on the station itself.
Which points towards them being more economical, if bulky and useless on most warships.
