I'm no expert so correct me if I'm wrong: For an omnidirectional antenna, targeting is certainly possible. For a direct hyper-focused antenna like what I believe starlink uses, this would mean having to intersect a super thin column between the starliink receiver and the starlink satellite at multiple elevations to establish where the receiver is, like flying through a net of threads connecting the dishes to the satellites. The chances of hitting a thread are slim, and the chances of hitting it again are even slimmer. It seems like a very difficult task. Simply move the dish every evening and you've made the task even harder.
