What happens if you disable the quarantine enforcement platform before the arrival of the Sunbeam?
Solution 1:
According to the Wiki:
However, if the player manages to disable the Quarantine Enforcement Platform before the Sunbeam arrives, Avery Quinn will inform them that they cannot attempt a landing due to large amounts of debris orbiting the planet. Despite the Sunbeam and its crew surviving, their attempt to rescue the player still fails.
So it looks like yes this was accounted for, and you still don't get rescued by them. They get to live, but you are still on your own.
