I actually think they should cap Starlink at 10Mbps just so that it IS only competing for Rural. I will likely get Starlink because Frontier is ending support for future development in the rural area I'm building a house. The house will be ready by the end of this year, so I'm hoping I can go with them instead of an ATT connection.

Given that it is going to pretty be my only option, it would suck if a bunch of city people suck up all the invites.

Or make it more expensive? I'm sure their 1gbps plan won't be cheap. Probably expensive enough that no one in a city would consider taking it. In rural areas however it's the only alternative.

Starlink's business is probably more successful anyway if they focus on fewer customers but charge those more. Less congestion and lower bandwidth requirements for their ground stations.

That seems fair, but still, it seems like you should still be required to be in a rural area to get those bandwidths. I can also imagine a scenario where dads in the city decide to buy this so that they can take the internet with them during weekend RV trips. So even if they are paying double what they pay Comcast, it's worth it for the internet everywhere factor. So perhaps, the satellites can give them that high bandwidth in remote regions, but only when the device is truly remote. When it returns to the city, perhaps the bandwidth should not compete with cable.
