I'm thinking of course if someone wants it they can try to rip off the guide and the bail, but I'm guessing the common a-hole without cable cutters may not want to bother...

This is the problem. The common a-hole most likely does carry bolt cutters. Tools of the trade.....simple linesman pliers will cut the bail and guide in 2 quick snips. Only the stupid ones waste their time trying to cut the cable.
Preventing theft is about making it take longer than they are willing to risk.
