There is nothing conclusive about that. We are more concerned about other things. In moderation its ok. No ads on phone, and no screen before bed. Some basic games and some kids shows. She knows howto navigate Total Commander and just star

Other issue is de-orbiting and module replacement. Monolitic station would be very dangerous and maintenance nightmare.
