a decision to prioritize the transition of Starlink launches away from Falcon 9

Incidentally, I haven't heard much talk about this, but it seems very plausible that 2026 (or even 2025) could be the peak year for Falcon 9, followed by a huge drop-off in launches, taking just a couple of years to get down to, say, 1 per month. Does anyone have any estimates/guesses along those lines?
