Not having a window is very disappointing, I agree, but whether it is inhumane or not probably depends on the duration of the stay.

So really, what is the purpose? I chose the drama not to underscore making astronauts endure those conditions but for the political reasons they are doing it. If we're going to set up a lunar orbital habitat for actual work and habitation, great for humanity, but chucking a billion dollar can for maybe a week to satisfy a congressional spend is beyond pointless.
