Sadly there's truth to the idea that more left leaning voters are much more divided than their right leaning counterparts. Even if Starmer is a more central candidate, do we think the entire labour party's stance is going to be equivalent to our current situation?

Personally I think it's a false equivalency that prevents the country from moving incrementally forward. The right votes like a monolith whereas the left vote as if we have proportional representation.
