Yeah... Terrestrial 5G towers with a fiber backbone for some proportion of them... are... stupendously more cost effective at getting a decent level of internet to a lot of people.

Also doesn't cause Kessler Syndrome, which is, you know, good.

Now, such a system will still suffer in more abberant atmospheric conditons, but to a far lesser extent.

Literally the only actual 'use case' I can think of where StarLink 'makes sense' as a better solution is ... you are a boat that is actually moving most of the time.

If you're a house boat... terrestrial 5G probably exists near your mooring.

Either that or you truly, truly live far away from civilization.

... but we already had satellite internet that did those things.
