Gotta wonder if there's any automated way to deploy guylines from the top of the booster to the ship. I can't think of anything practical.

Automated guylines are not going to help if the booster crashes on the pad.

Or if it explodes in the air before reaching the pad. But it could prevent it from toppling over due to high seas, like in this case.
