Why would someone want to hold Linkpool shares?

Let me tell you why. Direct exposure to an official nodes income. Majority of nodes will not let you stake your link with them. They will be drawing down link from lending pools or services like AAVE to fulfill their nodes staking needs.
Why would operators use your link when they can borrow it at 5% APR? We will likely see pools returns increase when lending your link, however you won't be getting a direct cut of those nodes profits.
