The researchers suspect this would help shrink the ozone hole that forms over the South Pole every year,

A lesser Ozone hole during a certain period.

Now just to know if the Ozone decimation is winning over this little phenomenon.
Either way, the LEO satellites seem to be to big a mess for their worth, unless you are just considering their military worth.
