You don't need temporary guys if the base is in concrete. With Rohn
spec'ing guys every 33 feet or so, you're going to have 4 sections or so of
naked
tower every time anyway and people climb that every day. Lots of us don't
like it but it's safe.
The Rohn statement probably has something to do with their liability
exposure since all tower manufacturers are insurance-driven enterprises.
