50 Mbps is great consumer bandwidth where?
Starlink in practice is 10-200Mbps. Here's their specifications: https://www.starlink.com/legal/documents/DOC-1138-34130-60
Where I used to live, I had 2 options for internet access. A Wireless ISP that uses a parabolic antenna pointed at a water-tower about ~20km from my home; or a cell-phone based internet connection.
The WISP allowed me on average 300kb/s transmissions. The Cell-Phone allowed me between 1.5Mb/s and 7Mb/s (to a max use of 5GB/month).
So 50Mb/s is an incredible upgrade.
An advertised "50 Mbps" mobile connection is dog food if you are used to 50 Mbps fiber. You are lucky if you get 20 Mbps through, though it can be much less. Worst part is all the packet loss that cause inconsistent latency and speed.
But sure let's fill up space with junk because North America can't get their shit together and just deploy fiber.
Anything that allows video communication/streaming is "great" imho, it certainly is more than enough for most people.
