A plane should still be capable of unassisted taking off and landing for emergencies, imo.
Landing yes, it's kinda silly to try to implement arresting cables for landing anyway. Takeoff though? If the system is broken, well then takeoff is delayed, but that wouldn't be an emergency. Planes can't take off all the time because of weather conditions.
