I think that it's highly likely that the section of the installation that we are on can be dropped from the section that you can see high above when you're outside. The Arbiter has to go to some lengths to sever the tether, but I would imagine that the process would be easier at the other end, high above. Maybe there's just a big red button to be pressed. There would need to be some method of preventing the Flood from climbing up the tether, but since it's a bottleneck, a couple of Sentinels could probably handle it. Plus, the winds in the atmosphere might make it hard for infection forms to climb up. Combat forms might have more luck, but they may not have been possible when the Forerunners were around - the Forerunners may not have been organic, or could have had Class 12 Combat Skins, or whatever, but maybe they couldn't be infected easily. Of course, maybe they just made the tether cable really slippy :) Ciarán.
