Considering the commercial pressure, regulatory agencies are likely to just reduce the collision avoidance margins. (I remember reading that this is already happening, just don't have a reference). It's easier to keep government agencies in line compared to conglomerates. But it would be fun when the Kessler syndrome starts. You could imagine that the probability increases when there are more satellites in one layer - especially LEO. I wonder how much all the recent launches affected that probability.
