Hi everyone, Is it okay if one of my letter writers only has a master's, not PhD?

Hi, I am applying to stats/biostats PhD programs, and I want to go into industry after. Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse, but should I apply to stats or biostats programs? I'm thinking about the following: 1. Job prospects. Is biostats more limited than stats? How do employers view a PhD in stats vs. biostats? 2. Will research topics be more limited to public health and medicine if I go into biostats? I'm primarily interested in biostats right now, but I don't want to restrict myself in case my interests change.
