The article conflates bandwidth and latency. Elon specifically says that minimum latency is limited due to the speed of light. https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1855473342494699921 However, bandwidth (ex: petabit/sec) here is not constrained by distance, just technology. More (and better) satellites would increase bandwidth. https://www.pcmag.com/news/starlinks-laser-system-is-beaming-42-million-gb-of-data-per-day

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1856060504118309269
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
