You’re being condescending. That belongs on Reddit, not here.
If you’re in low earth orbit you’re traveling through rocket exhaust. That doesn’t mean you’re seeing enough to affect optical transmission gain. Or orbital decay. But the notion that you’re going to miss because there’s 100’s of kilometers between fast moving satellites? That’s the part of this conversation that deserves condescension, if anything.
Until one of us does the actually maths and builds a model of the probability of intersection I guess our intuition on this being different is fairly irrelevant, either of us could be wrong. I didn’t really think much about my comment, maybe it was patronising I don’t know. I try not to treat the comments I write here (or receive here either) with much seriousness, often you can take most things I say here as me thinking out loud rather than some planned sarcasm or as you say Reddit type posting.
