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.
I’m disappointed that the ISS never got a rotating torus module. Maybe Lunar Gateway or one of the upcoming commercial stations will get one.
