If we can make a clean and closed ecosystem just in order to send it up in space, we could as well make it here on earth and never send it up. The earth is having the gravity and radiation protection for free among many other things.
There is no advantage in sending everything up in space. Keep the same modules assembled here on earth!
Hopefully we will never destroy our planet. Rather than thinking how to sustain a whole humanity in space, we should put our resources in rescuing what we have.
