The reason for the suggestion is that the station interior (3D) graphics (and related visual effects) use unreasonable amount of resources on their own and especially considering how useless the feature is.
As I note in my post earlier in this thread the whole thing could be replaced by a static background image and cut away like 95% of resource use even if the ship itself is still rendered.
So the problem is not whether someone likes the visuals or not and the whole thing could be kept in the form of a background image, and even better make it an option in the settings so people can choose whether they want the animated background or the static image which should make everyone happy.
