The cables were threatening to destabilize the helicopter, so he aborted? What else would be oscillating?
It does seem a little odd with how much engineering has gone into their project that they wouldn't have put a measure in place for that potential. a "what if we have to drop it, for whatever reason, before we get altitude" scenario. But I guess you literally can't plan for -everything-.
