      The low orbital altitude of Starlink satellites prevents them from being a Kessler concern, when they don’t do active station keeping they fall out of orbit in a matter of a few years.

      If you really think Starlink is “absurd” then just ignore it, it needs to be economically viable for SpaceX to keep launching them so if it turns out not to be it’ll be a self-correcting problem.
