I have seen these depictions of the guy wires so low on the tower however I have never built or seen one done that way. Typically the top guys are somewhere on the last section. Personally - I like the guys at the 5 ft below the top point. That gives the most strength vs access to the top balance. I have to think that the top guys being 15 ft below the top of a tower that is using 10 ft sections and only 80 ft tall is seriously reducing the load capability. Curious as to opinions in this area.
