They're quite wrong about 'this being stupid'.

It is true, that the amount of solar needed to power the entire US is about 0.5% of the land.

That doesn't mean there's no benefit in increasing the efficiency of panels and get dual use of the land. It also has the benefit of allowing for solar in more places where it's needed for more decentralized power.
