    Not necessarily SpaceX but they needed something.

    The problem with NASA is that the funding waxes and wains with the administrations, as does the demands of the administrations to give them the money.

    If something takes more than 8 years to happen chances are the project never comes to fruition. NASA has really slowed down in development in recent decades.

    Not all the innovation SpaceX is doing is really warranted, though most of it’s kind of cool. But they are investing in research and development in places that NASA simply can’t get to.

    Starlink is just a way for spacex to capitalize on that research and development. They are their own sister company customer.

    That said they can all turn into dog shit in a matter of months if somebody got a stick up their butt
