If we can do plasma deposition for cheap mirror reflective sunglasses with polycarbonate, why aren’t these materials commonly used?

Also, I can make thermals irrelevant easily with a small heating element and PID loop running on a $0.50 microcontroller. Many people run such elements already to avoid issues with moisture.
That PID heating setup would draw significant power over an observing session - you’d need a decent power station for field use (check gearscouts.com for options with good $/Wh on LFP batteries that wont die after a year).
