I agree with you and i never implied that the satellite can carry (as it is now) the capacity of the fiber. Future might unfold new technologies to the contrary. In the 90’s the speeds were in kbps and now i am preparing for Gigabit connectivity for residences.

Your post is very good and you should convert it into a blog post.   It has all the justification of why organization need resilience and where Starlink can meet the requirement.

But mark my words, Starlink will one day go TITSUP and have an outage which will be as long as if not longer that a submarine cable outage and an organization that solely relies on it will be crying it its own bowl of soup.

PS: I have yet to see a business location saturate any link at > 300mbs on average and a home is probably far less.  I have a guy who has 1gbs and uses only 40mbs.  Ask him why?  Its faster. Its not, his RDP session are as fast as they will ever be even at 50mbs.
A separate problem with which many people muddy the waters is that there is an underlying network kit problem where the kit is unable to sustain low latencies for sessions at high bit rates on a link.
