Will reflections from those satellites mess up terrestrial astronomy forever?

  No, not forever. None of these satellites will be in orbit that long.

      Starlink satellites are designed to de-orbit safely at the end of their operational life. Ref: The Kessler Effect: A self-perpetuating cascade of collisions between satellites and debris.
