This probably occurs to most people, but to be explicit about the downsides:

signalling possible drug production
lack of sunlight, which can (1) serve as an optical alarm clock (2) improve mood (3) be aesthetically pleasing
I imagine that most implementations will not be aesthetically pleasing to most people
Likely to signal a lack of socialability to anyone who should have occasion to visit your bedroom - cowering from sunlight is among the most oft-cited "antisocial nerd" tropes.
