I visited there a few months ago, and satellites are not a big concern for Rubin in particular. It will visit every part of the sky over 800 times and add all those images together, and since the satellite trails won't cover the same things every time the overall impact on data is minimal. They estimate less than 1%, so the plan is to just run the survey for 1% longer.
