The existence of such LSOs is a fundamental property of low dimensional Euclidean space, conceptually similar to the existence of well-separated pairs decomposition, so the question of how to compute (near) optimal construction of LSOs is quite natural.

In particular, for geometric dynamic spanners the new result matches (up to the aforementioned $\log \Eps$ factor) the lower bound, Thus offering a near-optimal simple dynamic data-structure for maintaining spanners under insertions and deletions.
