Reply to comment by UnoChance in China looked at putting a monitoring satellite in retrograde geostationary orbit via the moon by OkOrdinary5299
Not necessarily. Taking multiple measurements from different angles can be more useful than sitting still and staring at it all day.

RPO is not a static operation Edit: to expand, that article you sent says that gssap conducts RPO meaning it moves along the belt as you mentioned. Since it is so close it can actually look from more angles in a safer manner than a retro orbit
