Addressed how? All I see is a demonstration of tilting up in high winds. The worry here is low winds and high waves.

Or did you mean the "watch one" part is addressed? Sort of, but it's just a video of a render.

Do you mean that the barely-rotating blade would dip into the oncoming wave-front and get snapped?

I imagine that depends on whether "waves without wind" are likely to occur, and whether we can expect waves sizes/shaped so that they clip the blade itself before their rising edge hits the buoy to bump the blade upwards.

Or hits anything that might be passing by, like a boat.

As with lighthouses, I'm pretty sure that would be the boat's fault for recklessly approaching anywhere that close to the giant well-marked stationary field of tethered obstacles in the first place.

If it's someone doing authorized maintenance, they will probably have a rule "do not approach from the blade-side." If the wind is changing that strongly and unpredictably, then it's already a dangerously bad time to do maintenance.

I find the images more informative than the video: https://newatlas.com/energy/touchwind-floating-wind-turbine/...

As for low wind and high choppy waves, is that possible? My naive understanding is that these come during storms where it is typically windy

Waves can travel a long way from a storm, but they wont be very choppy without wind no.
