I think it's mostly congestion. They have a lot of subs going through
each bird.

Lesseeee 22,400 x 2 /186000= 240 mS one way.
So 480 mS ping RT under perfect conditions.
But in real life it is twice that. No idea why. Perhaps they are
using another satellite connection for backbone feed.

It is the ~23,000mi orbit geostationary birds that kill latency.
When a ping to a terrestrial server has to travel >90,000mi, the
latency will never be better than half a second. Musk wants to do a
large constellation of low orbit birds.

Time for some quantum entanglement.
