But unless Starlink turn them away some will still take the
service despite better options.

I do UK FWA and FTTP in rural areas and know others in the

odd customer is waiting for Starlink (instead of taking a
government GBP4k+ subsidy giving them free fibre/FWA install)

There's no telling some people.
