Just curious if that math includes a brand new starship upper stage for each launch?

Yes, the estimate is for the entire stack. But it's rumoured so take it with a pinch of salt. The internal cost for F9 is from their IPO I think.

Absolutely crazy that F9 with reuse is more expensive per sat capacity than a disposable starship, incredible what Raptor mass manufacturing has done to costs.
