Plop these satellites on a massive barge in the middle of the ocean with 2x the solar and battery capacity to (to account for day/night cycles) and you have exactly the same solution, only it's multiple orders of magnitude easier to "launch", service and you can actually recycle the deprecated hardware. It will also solve the cooling problem that's associated with space.

The fact that elon's colossus data centre needs to burn jet fuel on site for power tells you everything you need to know about the viability of a solar powered space based solution.

For everyone that’s blocked there seems to be another popping up even when the local populace voted against it.

Even then, space is still a harder place to put a satellite than any rural area on the planet.
