Simple. Astronomy does not hinder Starlink in any way. You cannot take the inaction of society and turn it into an entitlement.
By the same token you have no right to demand that people don't ride a bicycle on streets, just because up until now very few did (unless there is an explicit law against it, of course, but here it is perfectly legal).

Just because Starlink isn't hindered technically doesn't mean it shouldn't be hindered societally. When you create something, the obligation is on you to do so in a thoughtful way that doesn't cause harm. It's not on society to get out of your way just because you did it. I'm not sure I understand how that addresses my question.
