The power factor point @DY_Power raises is spot on — the Starlink dish PSU isn't a pure resistive load, so your actual VA draw will be higher than the watts suggest.
The efficiency angle is worth flagging too. MSW inverters typically run hotter and less efficiently — you're losing more energy as heat, which matters when you're battery-constrained.
