They also lost something like 40 out of 52 satellites when a solar flare caused the atmosphere to temporarily expand, causing more drag than expected before they could all go into thrusting prograde with their ion/hall effect thruster for standard post-release orbit raising. Immediately after launch. https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=starlink+launch+solar+flare https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=starlink+... At the scale of 3500+ satellites and automated assembly line production of them this is nothing more than a minor inconvenience. It's unfortunate that this happened but also it's great that if this is in fact the problem with the hardware design of the satellites it was revealed on the very first launch of the "v2.0 mini" production line. I'm sure they're pushing it into a "v2.0 mini rev B1" now or something in Redmond.
