Yeah it’s already a problem, but if we start ramming satellites against each other I could imagine the problem getting to a point where we have trouble launching things into space. The real issue is the relative velocity that orbiting objects have. If you’re curious, the Wikipedia article has a really cool infographic and the section on hazards is pretty interesting if you like space stuff.
I’ve found it effective to follow this with, “yes, now you’re starting to understand the problem”
