They could have already been launching on the Atlas Vs they bought

They did do a launch last ~~December~~ October. They need to pick up the pace a bit.

I guess that delay from the Kuiper test sats in Oct '23 to the first operational launch soon™ isn't really different from SpaceX going from the Tintin test sats in Feb '18 to operational sats in May '19. I'm just impatient.
