With Xfinity we are paying $79 a month with average speed of 800mbps. What am I missing here?

If you have another wired-cable/fiber optic option in your area then Starlink is definitely a bit more expensive.
Starlink was never intended to replace the standard cable providers. Starlink (Tesla) offers faster speeds and lower latency in remote areas where satellite and cellular internet are the only options. For those areas without a cable provider (islands, Ukraine!, remote cabins, ships, RVs, etc) then the $120 per month for Starlink is a viable option.
I believe Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines uses Starlink for their ships.
