That's why they plan to launch over 4k satellites into LEO: while each satellite only covers a small area, together they blanket the surface with coverage. Further latency savings are had by having them all communicate with each other with lasers, preventing awkward and unnecessary back-and-forths between ground and satellite in many cases.
