That type of concept feels like it needs to be its own thing and not a module on a larger station. The added rotational inertia and potential for vibration seem like pretty high risk factors for anything connected that wasn’t designed for it.
I hope starship can make a rotating station viable though.

Vast have distant plans for a ‘110-meter “spinning stick” station’. Their free-flying Haven-1 station could launch as early as next August. I’m excited to see what they do.
