Radiation isn't the only threat to a window. There are also micro-meteoroids of various descriptions. Both can be addressed while still letting in light, and possibly allowing a view, by an optical path that bounces a couple times off mirrors. Line of sight between window surface and deep space is inviting trouble.
As for a 2RPM spin on a station, I don't expect that to be a problem with the view for most people. Amusement park rides commonly involve faster rotation.
