If Starship is wildly successful, then what would realistically happen to the old giants of spaceflight who primarily profit off of indefinite development? Would they back out of an industry that they can't compete with? Would the US government bail them out? Would they shift their spaceflight focus to something that SpaceX can't do with Starship?

All the concepts for the cargo starship show the top half just hinging open like the fucking Spectre from "You only live twice". Someone in the comments also points out that such a cargo Starship could also fit the 13.2mx4.2m Hubble telescope for a potential retrieval and repair mission, which opens up the possibility that (in cases where it's more cost effective) large highly valuable satellites which have encountered failures or reached the age where their equipment has failed out could be snagged and returned to Earth for refurbishment or modernization.
