It looks like this reflects and scatters the light, rather than reflects and focuses it. Otherwise it would look like a mirror, not a ceramic.

That would only matter for something that it can focus on, it’s still reflecting. All the heat and at scale it’s not tested.

Adding more heat and heat currents into the atmosphere, cannot be a good thing long term.
