mike901 , to technology in Starlink satellites are dodging objects in orbit thousands of times every month

It could send debris into a more elliptical orbit, but it wouldn’t be possible for it to raise the entire orbit above LEO. The point of impact will remain in the orbital path and since the entire orbit is currently in LEO, there will be, by extension, some part of the new orbit still in LEO and therefore subject any debris to atmospheric capture.

mike901 , to technology in SpaceX Satellites Are Ruining Observations With "Unintended" Radiation

Media doesn’t care when SpaceX/Starlink fixes issues. They only care when problems are discovered, and act like it’s some malevolent act rather than an unforeseen issue. The albedo problem is fixed on all new launches for quite some time and the sats only have a 5 year service life before deorbit so the problem ones will be cleared out in short order. I expect this frequency issue to get ironed out in a similar fashion.

SpaceX and SL have a very good track record so far of working with scientists and authorities on minimizing impact of their sat constellations. Mind you, I don’t think this pure altruism, they just want to keep the government from locking down on them and jacking up costs.
