That sounds way more expensive and like it has way more points of failure if you live somewhere that occasionally gets hail, tornadoes, or hurricanes. I can only speak for those locations as that’s primarily where I’ve lived, but I would much prefer my roof to be a roof then to chance anything coming in.
My worry is less them getting ripped apart during a storm and more the potential hole they could leave behind due to their destruction. Any hole in a continuous surface is a weak point.
I think Elon’s SolarCity company did something like that but it failed because of inefficiency of the panels and just expensive to install. To be fair I think having this is better than no solar panels at all. I think this will remain common until those two I mentioned with SolarCity gets resolved.

Not gonna happen, house are insanely cheaply built these days.
Needs government regulation to force it, otherwise they’ll just do the cheapest thing
