Yeah, the problem with a display is that it's no selling point — we want to draw tourists in partly for the amazing views, but if they can get exactly the same view at any IMAX theater on Earth, then why pay the half million bucks for a week in LEO?
And it's probably not a big deal, because if you're spending that much to go to LEO, you probably want to spend a fair amount of time in zero-G too.
But it'd be even better if the people living there and spending most of their time at 1G could somehow check out the view on their way home from work, and have it be a real view rather than a display.
