What sort of bandwidth/latency do I get from Starlink if I'm the only user in 
a large area?

The spectrum is shared.  Does the bandwidth per user go down as more users in 
the antenna footprint become active?  How many users per square mile/km can 
Starlink support at the current target bandwidth?  ...

What fraction of the country is rural enough that it won't get fiber?  How 
much of that is sparse enough so that Starlink will work?

What should I be asking?

I agree with your questions

yes, Available bandwidth is shared between users. I don't know what you get if 
you are the only person there, but I can say that I'm in the LA metro area (far 
from rural) and I get enough bandwith to work remotely on Starlink.

My local makerspace also has Starlink and it's enough that having a (small) 
group of users operating at the same time is not a horrid experience.
