Just a heads up, that Youtube video is pure third party speculation and part of that speculation is already known to be false.

While download speeds are respectable on an empty network, Starlink's main weakness is its highly variable latency. Typical beta user minimum latencies are in the mid 30ies with very high variability. Ping tests that hover around 40 ms will go to high 60ies from one second to the other. Worst case latencies are well over 100 ms. The last part is what I consider disqualifying Starlink for RDOF funds meeting the low-latency standard, but I guess that's what Elon has lawyers for.
