I use Comcast Business for my primary at home, but it is so bad that I was forced to get Starlink as backup. I am not in a city, but close enough that there would be issues.

Adding a terrestrial transmitter source mounted on towers and with CPEs that stomps on the same frequencies as the last 20 years of existing two way VSAT terminals throughout the US seems like a bad idea. Even if you ignore the existence of Starlink, there's a myriad of low bandwidth but critical SCADA systems out there and remote locations on ku-band two way geostationary terminals right now.
I think the original thought was that the satellite service would be used in rural areas and 5G in cities so there'd be geographic separation, but Starlink is selling service all over the place.
