It's a critical point in fact, because you're never going to capture an entire market, you're going to capture at best a modest fraction of the maximum market (for numerous obvious reasons).
Those 41 million potential customers are actually more like maybe 10-12 million stable or semi-stable households. The 41m is an incorrect number to go on, that represents the total number of people rather than the household count.
You're only going to get a fraction of those 10-12 million households no matter what you do. So now you're talking about probably at least 1m, up to maybe 4-6m households / accounts. Starlink can make a large dent in that.
