SpaceX is not actually supposed to even have direct control over Starshield. It uses Starlink infrastructure, but is a military application that is supposed to be under the control of the federal government.

SpaceX shouldn't have the option to pitch different plans.

    They have been opeque as to whether this is actually starshield or starlink. Elon is not supposed to have any control over starshield - that is supposed to be controlled by the Pentagon.
