I see that my comment has revealed that many people don't bother to read for comprehension before responding.

My comment was that no matter how many rural customers you get, there just isn't enough people to make the per customer cost cheap, simply because the denominator is so small. Further more, Starlink et al. can never grow the pie (i.e. increase the denominator) because no one in an urban environment wants it.

My god. This isn't even a controversial statement, yet... woosh!
