We don't know what their routing in space is. But we know that it isn't just up
to a single satellite and back down to a ground station.
But I will say that since they NAT the connection at the ground station (or
Internet peering point), and not allowing dishy-to-dishy direct communications
yet, they aren't sending different packets to different destinations, they are
sending them all to the single internet gateway

But, is it still bent pipe (long, kinked, fine) solution?
There are no L2 or L3 decisions being made in the satellites themselves yet?
