I think you're right. One of ideas I had when I first heard about these Solar Screens,
was to install them
inside south facing windows during the winter.
They would provide privacy, slow the air flow off the glass a bit,
and would re-radiate solar heat into the room, without bright sun coming into the room.
And, the lady of the house will like not having their curtains and furniture being bleached out by the sun.
Actually, instead of applying a heat-shrink plastic film over windows during the winter,
just use some clear plastic (even a clear drop-cloth) over the indoor screen.
That would really cut down the air flow off the glass!
