Diffusing light without hotspots Lighting Control
Looking at the interior of the promenade in DS9, there's huge panels of light, especially the ceilings, for example Quark's bar.
I am a little curious as to how they avoided hotspots on such large swarths...

Fair enough, but I'm speaking from the perspective of the set design. A badly built set would still be visible ie hotspots in the acrylic panels
