Is latency competitive? 4g is quite laggy in terms of RTT. Not sure what sea-level starlink is like.

It absolutely can be, but that depends on how congested/well managed the network is.

I‘ve seen stable latencies under 20ms on some networks, but also absurd spikes of multiple seconds on others. (The same goes for cable/DOCSIS, by the way…)
