Almost everyone who would benefit from Starlink in a rural area shares the sky with a major metropolitan area containing millions of people.

Can you expand on that? "shares the sky"?

[inetknght → Diederich]

Sure. When you look up in a rural region you see stars. When you look up in an urban region within, say, the same geographic hemisphere, you're very likely to see the same stars.

I must not be under the same sky then. It’s too bright here to see any stars in order to confirm your theory.
