And down in others. Wasn’t the entire point of Starlink to provide affordable, reliably fast internet to rural areas?

I'm not sure what your point is here. Inflation has gone wild the past year and everything is getting more expensive.

Do you expect them to eat these increase costs? A company that is not even profitable yet?

$90 - $120 a month for high speed internet in rural locations is insanely cheap when you consider the tech you are using.

Areas with "excess capacity" refers to those rural areas.

Starlink RV went up to $150/month, and that's still a bargain.
