It would make sense if there’s no space left on earth to build new datacenters, but the simple solution to that is just to stop building so many datacenters.
Basically they’re trying to build a data centre where the most expensive part of the data centre is the building itself which is completely not how it’s supposed to work.
Even if it could be made to “work”, the idea that it would somehow be superior to or more economical than a terrestrial facility is madness.
