Not an expert, and have barely studied anything related.
That being said, this:
> I think there needs to be rules about orbital distance. Low earth orbit satellites like Starlink aren't risky because their orbit decays rapidly without constant boosts. Its the perfect failsafe.
doesn't necessarily sound like a bad idea. Obviously you are correct about the second part however.
